King's Quest VI - window size?
Hello, I apologize if this has been answered somewhere, but after quite a bit of searching on Steam and other forums, I'm stuck.

Trying to play King's Quest VI (windows version), I'm running into the issue that the window that opens is too large to be played properly. What I mean is that it opens in a windowed mode but the window stretches into my task bar, thus I cannot click anything below that point on the screen. I thought I'd just cross my fingers that there won't be any essential objects that far down on the screen — but of course, with how touchy the game is to moving to the next screen/location, I've reached the point where I can't leave certain spots (at the moment, the Castle of the Crown) because I can't click quite low enough on the screen to take the path south because the game window is too large to fit on my monitor's screen. Can I change the size of the window the game opens in? Or the mode in which it opens? Is this a resolution problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You can press ALT+ENTER to go into fullscreen (but it will be stretched if on widescreen) or you can edit the
scummvm.ini
located in
SteamApps\common\King's Quest Collection\KQ6\
and change
gfx_mode=2x
to
gfx_mode=1x
which should halve the window size.

(If it's set higher than 2x try lowering it by 1 first.)
