    Cant find Alt/Skins games and I just did the update

    Went to games modes then click single and only games found there are Stroke/ Ctth for single Player.The slide bar on the right only shows the different courses.

    Clicking on Multi player only shows games for multiple players Stroke or Skins.

    Perhaps the Mac EA doesn't have this feature yet or I just cant find it

    I'm sorry, I only deal with windows. When it gets to steam everything but Catalina will be covered

    Have you tried the swipe method JaRTennBogey?

    Imagine your mouse cursor is a finger on a touch screen. Position your cursor on the screen, (near the top if you want to drag down and vice versa), click and hold your left mouse button down, then drag down / up.

    Yes Scott you are right as usual also,i have gotten so used to using my mouse here i forget about touch screen. Thank you.

    Last year I tried the launcher. It loaded, worked, I could access every function.

    Since the updates, it WILL NOT fit on my laptop screen. There is no way I can play it I can`t get to any of the commands to click on to do any function.My browser is Chrome.

    I have tried all the "fixes"  I have seen in these threads..  all the methods  built in to my laptop, asked Google and Jeeves , even thought of asking Mr Gates but he is probably busy ... ..  still unable to get the thing to fit inside my screen.Nothing will  shrink the thing ! .

    I even changed the recommended settings on my laptop- which my laptop recommended I NEVER do--  it took me hours to figure out how to access my giant fonts after that !

    I am not comp savvy- so I am probably missing a very simple fix.. if anyone has it, please let me know.

    Thanks

    Thank you JB, took me a little while too to get used to the mobile scroll method.  ; )


    Fineleg, have you tried THIS.

    I have indeed. The curious thing is,  I opened the Task Manager, looked under Processes- and there is no WGT App. Nor is there a WGT Launcher  App. In fact, even though I have been playing WGT on my laptop for a number of years, apart from the shortcut there is no other evidence of WGT.

    I looked in my Programmes List, and the Launcher at least was listed.

    So none of these methods worked for me- even if I run them as an Administrator.

    What I did in the end was : reduce the zoom on my google page from 100% to 50 %, and move my ribbon to the left of screen.This then gave me just enough screen to click on the tiny bit of the settings logo poking out from the bottom of the open launcher.

    That allowed me then to navigate to the Video options in the app, change the screen size to 16x 9 and then click on full screen. Lo and behold-- it now fits, I can access all functions, and my ribbon still fits at the bottom where I prefer it.

    Not the sharpest picture, but  with Avatars that look like they put their fingers in a wall socket, and silliness abounding everywhere ,maybe that is not a bad thing ...

    So my fix yes is a crude methodology perhaps-- but sometimes knowing bugger all about something allows trial and error to win the day !

    Now all I have to figure out is how to adapt to the loopy, clown like world of early access !!

    That is odd. Do other programs appear in the task manager when they are running?
