(SOLVED) Full screen issue

Not sure what is up here. I am creating this gameboard for the students and teachers to battle during the trivia match next at school. The gameboard works well and then I just tried it on both Chrome and IE and when I go full screen, things go bananas!!!!!!!!

When the score tile zooms it is slightly off center then when it goes back to its spot, it gets tiny and sort of spins around. Then the next block you click will snap to the top left when it zooms and the only way to fix it is to reload the page. Once it glitches in full screen I can't get it back without a reload.

I tried on both IE and Chrome so at this point I am going to assume there must me a code issue with me but it works fine in regular sized window. Thanks in advance.

Try running the game a few times then try to play it in full screen. It worked fine after I did that

Thanks but I'd like to know the root of the issue if it is on my end or somewhere else. When I run this program, after fixing grammatical errors and such, I don't want to have to run it a few times to make it work. Is it the vector tiles being funky, is it my code? I'd like to solve the root of the issue, helps me to learn.

Edit: So bizarre. On my Chromebook it works perfectly fine. On my Windows 7 pc, both Chrome and IE, full screen, no go. Weird.

It runs very quickly on mine, and without anything going awry. I think when it does have those problems, it's just your computer. It has happened many times before on an older (slower) computer of mine, but currently not on my very new one. It's true that I AM running on Windows 10, so I think that it lies in your computer speed, not in your program.

So it really depends on what computer you'll play it on, typically, the newer, faster ones are better for Scratch projects.

Try removing any effect than ghost or brigthness you have, no matter if it is running or not. Alternatively press CTRL+M to deactivate 3DStage graphic acceleraion.

I went searching and found a change color effect block that was hidden behind a script. Wasn't doing anything was just sitting there as a single stray. I threw it away and it now appears everything works fine on my windows 7 pc with Chrome and on IE.

So I guess I'll call this “semi solved”, as my windows pc is faster than my Chromebook, but it appears that one stray unused block was wreaking havoc. Quite frustrating but what can you do.

Thank you for the help on looking for any effect blocks. Quite infuriating as I was looking at my code for about 3 hours trying to figure out what happened before posting here. It wasn't even me…for once. Thanks again.
