Hello.

I just tried to run Crusader Kings 2 on my MBR and encountered a problem with the resolution.
With the game running on fullscreen with a resolution set to 1920x1200, the interface won't take in all the space of my laptop's screen. There is a thick black margin in the top and right side of the screen.

Screen Shot 2014-12-01 at 23.09.22.png

Also the cursor seems to offset. I can't click directly on any of the buttons; the cursor needs to hover just about two centimeters above the button to make it clickable. I think this might have to do with the first issue.

I own a retina (2880x1800) Macbook Pro 15" from late 2013. It has a NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M.
I have the game running on OSX Yosemite.

Thanks in advance!

I've seen the cursor being off before, but not the black stripes on the screen.

If you set it to Windowed mode does it show properly?

Also, try turning off the Steam Community Overlay in Steam for this game, see if that helps at all.

Indeed in windowed mode the game's display takes the proper height and width on the screen. (I have to set the resolution to 1920x1100 though, so that it fits between the dock and the menubar.) This also fixes the cursor.
Turning the Steam Overly on or off doesn't seem to make a difference.

Also, changing the resolution to 2880x1800 (in settings.txt) eliminates the black stripes. It does make everything too tiny to read, unfortunately.
