Description

When starting an of application in fullscreen mode under windows 10: the screen turns black.

When toggling from fullscreen to window mode by keyinput everything works like expected, the screen shows the correct picture.
Using ofToggleFullscreen() and ofSetFullscreen(true) produce the same result. This only occurs when switching the screen mode without key input.

Starting in OF_GAME_MODE works as expected
