When entering tropico 5,it is under not-fullscreen mode,how to solve it?
I am veeeeeery hating it!I want playing it under fullscreen mode,for if my mouse touch the edge now,it will delay several secondes to move in the game.

Have you tried the settings menu?

In general however, most games struggle with properly constraining the cursor (i.e. code to scroll doesn't trigger) unless you run them in full screen mode - the fix is to either tolerate it, change back to full screen mode (if you have more than one monitor you might as well turn them off for the duration in this mode) or go "female dog" on forums. Caveat emptor.

Set Options/Visuals/Display Resolution to something other than "Windowed" - arguably Tropico's idea of combining resolution and fullscreen into a single option is one of the least smart ways of doing things but since that's just how T4 worked I'm not exactly surprised that they stuck with their bad ideas.

In some games Alt+Enter switches to fullscreen

"Options->Visuals->Display Resolution" Change it to "Windowed" and then change back to your desired full-screen resolution, it will be fullscreen again.

One trick I've found works:

Go to the graphics screen. Turn your Resolution up one notch, confirm it and then when it asks if you'd like to keep it this way, cancel it and your game should now fill the whole screen.

This does have the effect of making windows running under the game de-full screen and you'll have to do it most times you load it but it works pretty well for me.
