Hi!
I’ve seen some top players (like mrekk) playing with a layout where the playfield appears in a smaller, centered box inside the screen, while the rest of the HUD (score, HP bar, combo, etc.) stays outside of it. The game is still in fullscreen, but only part of the screen is used for actual gameplay.
Is that setup actually done inside osu!, or is it something done externally (like through OBS or an overlay)? I’m trying to get the same look that clearly separates the playfield from the rest of the interface.
You can see exactly what I’m referring to on mrekk’s screen at this moment in this video:

Any help or guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!
