I have been wondering about this myself. I am hoping its in a config file we can modify.
What gets me is sometimes Celestia remembers the resolution I last used in fullscreen mode and will open back to that res and then other times it defualts back top 640x480. If its posible to force fullscreen mode I too would like to know how to set that up.

and the current binary setting number is 22

But I wouldnt know what to change it to, to get full screen instead of Windowed

Anyone else know of this.... :?:

Why don't you just try it instead of waiting for someone else to try it and send you the feedback?

Open the shortcut with properties and place in Target: "C:\Program Files\Celestia\celestia.exe" -fullscreen

If your a mac or linux user try adding the -fullscreen at the end if thats how it works...it may work Im not sure...
