Logical Size

paul_k_clark

Hi, I am trying to use the logical height in drawing for my game but I get two different sizes. The code:


Screen = gideros.class(Sprite)
S_HEIGHT = application:getLogicalHeight()
function Screen:init(lvl)
print("application:getLogicalHeight()="..application:getLogicalHeight())
print("S_HEIGHT="..S_HEIGHT)


should print the same value for both prints but instead prints:


application:getLogicalHeight()=960
S_HEIGHT=480


The properties of my game specify the logical coordinates of 480x320

Any ideas?

When I run this code...

Screen = gideros.class(Sprite) S_HEIGHT = application:getLogicalHeight() function Screen:init(lvl) print("application:getLogicalHeight()="..application:getLogicalHeight()) print("S_HEIGHT="..S_HEIGHT) end s = Screen.new()

...it gives me two identical values; I haven't found how to make it fail like your example. Are you running the latest version...? Incidentally I thought gideros.class had been deprecated in favour of Core.class. You might also consider "getContent" instead of "getLogical" to take account of orientation.

@BJG Thanks for that. I created a new project and the results were identical. After searching around my code I found a "setLogicalDimensions" statement which was setting it. Don't know when I put that in there .
