### User comment # 1 This corresponds with change_res call # 4
  User said setting this resolution was a (Failure) Here's why :
When using mode 3 and changing from a fullscreen mode that is not the original
desktop size to a windowed mode then when allegro_message is displayed I think
the resolution is actually a window the size of the desktop. This window cannot
be selected or moved though , only the popup window that allegro_message uses.
When the popup is moved it leaves copies of itself wherever it was. However ,
once the okay button has been clicked on allegro_message it changes successfully
to the new resolution window (No excess window size or weirdness either).

### User comment # 2 This corresponds with change_res call # 8
  User said setting this resolution was a (Failure) Here's why :
Another note for mode 3 is this : After changing to an unsupported mode ,
whenever set_gfx_mode is called , there is a flash of pink on the monitor as it
is being changed to the new resolution. Also , after changing to an unsupported
mode and then changing from a fullscreen resolution that is not the same size as
the initial desktop resolution to a windowed mode then during allegro_message
there is a window that is the size of the original desktop resolution that is
entirely pink except for the allegro_message popup. When moving this popup it
does not leave copies of itself on the screen. After clicking okay on the button
it changes to the requested windowed mode successfully. However , while writing
this I have noticed the window flashing pink occasionally.
