Why I cannot move around the map using side of screen in Legacy versions

[Daffa]

It's been bothering me that I cannot move my Warcraft III view during gameplay using the sides of screen whenever I used legacy version. Any idea why this is happening?

For the record, I have classic and reforged installed at different folders
Windows 11

Did you play the specific custom map like Warchasers or various RPG maps with a locked camera trigger? It may be that.

According to some reports, running the game on exclusive fullscreen mode (not windowed one) will solve any graphical issues. You could also run the game using legacy graphics rendering such as "-graphicsapi Direct3D9" or something similar.

No, it's normal melee map and there's no locked camera in the map. I can navigate the map via minimap, but not via using sides of screen

Windowed mode messing it up?

Probably this. How to disable windowed mode?

Not sure. I thought that in legacy you had to put -windowed in launch to enable it.
Maybe there's a 3rd party app on your system (related to your graphics card) that could be forcing some kind of windowed mode
