3d Canvas Size: Window Custom Size

Is there a way to have custom dimensions for the 3d Canvas size (not the pre-set dimensions from the drop down choices)?
I was making a gallery using 1/2 my monitor back on Win 7 (1272x1413 pixels) but once i changed to win10 the dimension are slightly different (taskbar may have resized).
Is this feature implemented ?

Perhaps inside the config file XNA.cfg
Code: Select all
Save3DWindowDimensions = False
3DWindowDimensions = 0 0 1024 768
or
Code: Select all
Save3DWindowDimensions = False
3DWindowDimensions = maximized

Thanks for replying
I've tried to change the settings per your instructions and the canvas automatically loads only to the 700x700 default despite the change in the xna.cfg.
Under config/preference i've also unchecked the "Don't save 3d Window Dimensions" but not avail.

And exactly this is the BUG in Anx's sulution
It must be:
Code: Select all
Save3DWindowDimensions = True
3DWindowDimensions = 0 0 1024 768

yes this seems to do it. If the dimensions I require are larger than my monitor's resolution, then i can scale it down and save the image with a % multiplier afterwards.
Thank you both this is highly useful to me
