Window sized texture???

I have defined a 4-vertices-quad on which I mapped a texture. Now, I want to set the size of my quad the same size as the window on which it is rendered so that my texture right stretches out to occupy the entire window area. Can someone tell me how to do that???

So do you want a window-sized texture or a window-sized quad?

If you want the first, that''s usually impossible, since texture sizes must be powers of two, and most display modes, as well as window sizes, aren''t. Besides, it''s pointless.

If you mean the second, get your window dimensions using GetClientRect, set up ortho view that covers the whole window, and draw a quad that has the same vertices as your client area -- (0,0)-(640,480), for instance.
