Mac version, switching FULL SCREEN toggle off and back on = graphics corruption

A minor bug, as per title. After accidentally clicking the FULL SCREEN toggle on the Mac toolbar, when you reactivate Full Screen, the background graphics are only refreshing on small parts of the screen until rebooting the game. Overlay popups (and planet tags) are moving according to mouse drag but background is not (only at the very bottom of screen, and even there its mixed up into weird tiles).

I've had the same problem. (see here: /#/endless-space/forum/35-tech-support/thread/15326-mac-version-screen-not-updating ). I've since updated to 10.10.5 and the problem persists. I was able to kind of trick the game into running smoothly at fullscreen for a while, but I made the mistake of lowering the resolution and now the corruption is always present unless the game is running in a window. Unfortunately I can't remember exactly what I did to get it running well, but it had something to do with the game not storing graphical option choices correctly (like how you can turn off the galaxy scale option sometimes and the actual scale will remain on the game screen but when you reopen the options window the galaxy scale box is unchecked). Using some combination of Command-F and the options screen I got the same thing to happen somehow with the fullscreen checkbox in the option screen (so that it was running fullscreen but the option checkbox was unchecked). Worked for a long time until I made the mistake of wanting a slightly smaller resolution. Now the corruption is back and I'm locked out of fullscreen again.

OK, got it to work in fullscreen again. Was playing around with resolution settings again, at some point the game was in window mode and I switched it with the apple menu outside the window, then brought up the in-game options menu and the checkbox for fullscreen was unchecked even though the game was running fullscreen. Or something like that, not sure exactly what I did as I was trying a bunch of things pretty quickly. It's a little frustrating to know the game is capable of running just fine in fullscreen, but if you want to adjust any resolution options you have to 'trick' the game into working again. Still love the game though, now that it's accidentally working again.
