Here is my learning from the RnD I did on system settings app (immersive control panel). (see my other answer for a simple C++ API I created from this learning – https://stackoverflow.com/a/58066736/981766. A simpler method for single monitor setups, or if you want to change DPI of just the prmary monitor is given here – … Read more
Ok, so you’re using jQuery. So let’s make a custom event for it. (function () { var width = screen.width, height = screen.height; setInterval(function () { if (screen.width !== width || screen.height !== height) { width = screen.width; height = screen.height; $(window).trigger(‘resolutionchange’); } }, 50); }()); Now $(window).bind(‘resolutionchange’, fn) should do what you want.
#include “wtypes.h” #include <iostream> using namespace std; // Get the horizontal and vertical screen sizes in pixel void GetDesktopResolution(int& horizontal, int& vertical) { RECT desktop; // Get a handle to the desktop window const HWND hDesktop = GetDesktopWindow(); // Get the size of screen to the variable desktop GetWindowRect(hDesktop, &desktop); // The top left corner … Read more
I can’t directly answer your question, but i’d like to tell you my approach. I try not to use to use any numbers at all. Instead I try using paddings, margins and relative layouts so that my views look correctly on any phone. It also helps me to avoid creating view for different orientations.
I guess that’s a good way to go. The only downside I can think of is the resource overhead on small scale devices and possible artifacts because of the downscaling. Actually at this year’s Google IO Chris Pruett recommended embedding only high resolution assets and let opengl handle the scaling.
I know this would be a somewhat controversial opinion, but I’d say it anyway: Don’t Don’t design for multiple screen sizes or aspect ratios. There are of course a few exceptions: Heavy web applications like webmail clients can definitely do with more screen real estate, and are probably flexible enough to accommodate a large range … Read more
Use Dock and Anchor properties. Here is a good article. Note that these will handle changes when maximizing/minimizing. That is a little different that if the screen resolution changes, but it will be along the same idea.
According to the latest Compatibility Definition Document, the definition for screen configurations require that: Screens MUST be at least 2.5 inches in physical diagonal size Density MUST be at least 100 dpi The aspect ratio MUST be between 1.333 (4:3) and 1.779 (16:9) The display technology used consists of square pixels In practical terms, the … Read more
unity changes its ingame camera to match the dimensions of the aspect ratio of the screen it’s using. Obviously this isn’t always desired, so there’s a couple of ways around this: 1) First method is very easy to implement, though it rarely looks good. You can simply change the camera’s aspect ratio to match the … Read more
To change the Android-x86 screen resolution on VirtualBox you need to: Add custom screen resolution: Android <6.0: VBoxManage setextradata “VM_NAME_HERE” “CustomVideoMode1” “320x480x16” Android >=6.0: VBoxManage setextradata “VM_NAME_HERE” “CustomVideoMode1” “320x480x32” Figure out what is the ‘hex’-value for your VideoMode: 2.1. Start the VM 2.2. In GRUB menu enter a (Android >=6.0: e) 2.3. In the next … Read more
