Currently, if the game is in windowed mode, you can't resize the window. Several other games already have this ability, and I don't see why it's not a feature in Hoi4.
I usually prefer playing with the exit, minimize, fullscreen button, and the taskbar to navigate my computer easily, and when I'm using alt-tab the game freezes and makes navigating the computer slow and annoying.

I might also add that edge scrolling is a bit annoying sometimes, and a button toggling that would be nice.

Thank you for your time!

Thanks for your replies, but I'm not really looking for ways to "duct tape" the problem. I just find it a little bit weird, and as this thread is a feature request I'm not looking for fixes to the problem.

Anyways, thanks a lot for your time and consideration!

Just realized I put this thread in the wrong category. Feel free to move if possible.

Yes it's good. It's called 'Borderless' Mode in the in-game video options, and 'Borderless fullscreen' Display mode in the launcher graphics options.

You cannot minimize borderless mode but you can minimize windowed mode with game window set to desktop size which is functionally the same as borderless but with the added possibility of minimizing.

You're right. My mistake, sorry. I didn't know you could set the windowed mode resolution to desktop resolution, so when I read "Full screen window", I thought you meant borderless fullscreen.
