$RESIZE
The $RESIZE metacommand determines if a program window can be resized by the user.
Syntax
- $RESIZE:{ON|OFF|STRETCH|SMOOTH}
Description
- $RESIZE:ON is used to allow the program window to be resized by a program user. Otherwise it cannot be changed.
- $RESIZE:OFF (default) is used when the program's window size cannot be changed by the user.
- $RESIZE:STRETCH the screen will be stretched to fit the new window size with a 1 to 1 ratio of width and height.
- $RESIZE:SMOOTH the screen will be stretched also, but with linear filtering applied to the pixels.
Availability
- Version 1.000 and up.
Examples
Example: Resizing a program screen when the user changes it without clearing the entire screen image:
$RESIZE:ON SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(160, 140, 32) _DELAY 0.1 _SCREENMOVE 20, 20 _DISPLAY ' CLEAR _RESIZE FLAG BY READING IT ONCE temp& = _RESIZE DO _LIMIT 60 IF CheckResize(_SOURCE) = -1 THEN FOR i = 1 TO 10 CIRCLE (RND * _WIDTH(0) - 1, RND * _HEIGHT(0) - 1), RND * 100 + 5, _RGB32(RND * 255, RND * 255, RND * 255) NEXT ELSE FOR i = 1 TO 200 PSET (RND * _WIDTH(0) - 1, RND * _HEIGHT(0) - 1), _RGB32(RND * 255, RND * 255, RND * 255) NEXT END IF _DISPLAY k& = _KEYHIT LOOP UNTIL k& = 27 OR k& = 32 SYSTEM ' ************************************************************************************************* ' * * ' * CheckResize: This FUNCTION checks if the user resized the window, and if so, recreates the * ' * ORIGINAL SCREEN image to the new window size. * ' * * ' * Developer Note: You must use $RESIZE:ON, $RESIZE:SMOOTH, or $RESIZE:SMOOTH at * ' * the beginning of your project for this to work. * ' * This FUNCTION only works in QB64 version 1.000 and up. * ' * * ' ************************************************************************************************* FUNCTION CheckResize (CurrentScreen AS _UNSIGNED LONG) ' *** Define local variable for temporary screen DIM TempScreen AS _UNSIGNED LONG CheckResize = 0 ' *** Check to see if the user resized the window.
