also some keyboard features does not work in the gamebot windows. for example see this "@Gamee Run" . |
|
imho a lot of windows needs to be allowed resized on every direction. |
Agreed but this here is a clear regression from previous behavior. Other windows just were like this from the beginning. But using game bots became now just very annoying on TDesktop. Just because "most users use mobile anyway", we - desktop users - should not suffer from a worse experience. There was nothing wrong with previous behavior and it was superior in almost every way. |

+1 for allowing all windows (web-apps included) to be resized. In fact web-apps already can be resized but only on linux and only on X11, which is odd. But there resizing works and I don't see a reason why it is locked on other platforms. |

Just to update on the topic: Telegram Web K allows for resizing Web Apps therefore there are even less reasons for Telegram Desktop to have this in the worst state than any other client by sheer size of its window alone. |
Is your feature request related to a problem?
One of the recent updates changed the behavior for gamebots (like gamee for example). Games now open inside a very small (384x590) fixed-size window making it difficult to play or read text presented on them. It is a regression compared to previous versions and even most modern mobile phones have display sizes larger than this.
Describe the solution you'd like
Having in mind that this is a Desktop client, this screams for ability to resize the window in both axis. There could be size limitations for it but please allow for resizing the window.
Describe alternatives you've considered
An alternative would be having "Open in browser" button in the overflow menu, however this is less than ideal solution because it would require doing that every time, while resizeable window could remember its previous size.
Additional context
HTML5 Game bot documentation clearly states that games should be responsive:

There's no clear reason for limiting game bots to fixed-size super small windows.
