DD= is blinking in and out to find an ant size window for the original DOS programs (320x200 ~640x480)

also..
for dosboxx (build 2025) and dosboxx (build 2023)
is there a way to use a mouse for win3.11 installed in dosboxx? i
a mouse works in win 3.11 installed in dosbox but not in dosboxx

Try:

dosbox-x -set windowresolution=1200x900 -defaultconf

If that works, there is something in your config file that is preventing it from working. e.g., using TTF output.

For Windows 3.1x have a look at the wiki. Mouse should work just fine using default settings, but you do need to capture the input, unless you use a 3rd party mouse driver as documented on the wiki.

thanks for the help, i just got it working, it was ttf doing the thing,

but with doxbox-x build 2023, i was able to change -set windowresolution=1024x768, i didnt notice much

but with doxbox-x build 2025, -set windowresolution=1024x768 didnt work, always taking it the ant size original window.

and with output=ttf , the window for a text mode 80 was always fixed and i just remembered that the console window was big and stretched with ttf. i checked the dosbox's setting, it was overlay, i used the overlay in boxx 2025 and -set windowresolution worked as it was. it is ok i can drop ttf

ps. i found the vbmouse for win3.11, it was hard to find. please forget about this issue
