Aspect Ratio problem

Hello,

I've got laptop with 16:9 screen (1080p) and Intel 4000 gfx. And I've got several fullscreen apps that run in 4:3 aspect ratio. So on my wide screen they look stretched. On other gfx cards I always had option to maintain aspect ratio, but on my current laptop I see only one option:

- Maintain Display Scaling

After some googling and trying, I found a way to get back other options, I had to set my desktop resolution into 4:3 AP, 1024x768 and then this menu in driver received all options including one I was looking for:

- Maintain Aspect Raio

That's really weird way. Or guys who created this driver didn't even though that someone will be running apps in other AP?

Thanks for joining the Graphics community.

Aspect Ratio options are available if you set your screen other than native screen resolution. This is the way the driver works for your graphics controller.
