Re: [pygame] resizable

["Ben Friman" <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pavel,

I would be interested to know how you do that. Perhaps you could show a snippet of
code.

One thing which doesn't answer your question but might still be helpful, is the method
for detecting the current display resolution. I spent more hours than you could
imagine trying to figure out how to do it (under Windows only):

List_Modes can give modes higher than the current resolution! If you try to change
display mode to a resolution which is too high for the display device, the user doesn't
get to see a lot! So it's much safer to detect the current display resolution and work
within that.

import win32api
SM_CXSCREEN = 0  # I didn't find any include file which defines these contstants
SM_CYSCREEN = 1


x = win32api.GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXSCREEN)
y = win32api.GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYSCREEN)

Incidentally, my father was called Pavel and he came from Kosice. I guess that's
somewhere near to you!
