I'm trying to build some kind of menu that overlaps when called upon (by pressing the menu button).
Since this will be a mobile app I want all measures to be responsive and thus written in percentage instead of pixels.
I'm in some way trying to make a slide in menu like the Facebook App has.
My solution to this is to have a side menu that is 0% width. When the menu-button is pressed the menu will expand to 70% of the device's screen width, thus covering 70% of the width.
I've been trying to get it right by doing this
<fx:Script>
<![CDATA[
protected function button1_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace( stage.fullScreenWidth, stage.fullScreenHeight );
trace(meny.width);
if (meny.width !== 0) {
meny.width = 0;
} else {
meny.width = 0.5*stage.fullScreenWidth;
}
}
]]>
</fx:Script>
When I debug the trace's show's me the correct values. In this case emulating iPhone 4 it gives me: 540 (width) 960 (height) and 270 (meny.width).
However, even tho the calculation has been correct (270 is 50% of 540) the width of the meny will cover more than half of the screen, approximately 80%~
Why is it doing this and what's the solution? The debugging console is giving me the correct values but it isn't turning out to work.
I also tried on an Android device plugged in and the same issue, so it's not the emulation being a problem.
Any solutions appreciated.
I suggest you to use sizes of application's width instead of stage width:
menu.width=parentApplication.width
You don't need to deal with stage sizes until you add some global event listeners or use something like StageWebView or StageVideo
You can read this articale about mobile apps auto scaling for more details.

I'm working on an AIR desktop project.
I have a scrollPane with a container assigned to it...
mainScrollPane.source = mainContainer;
The scrollPane is resized whenever the window is resized, in order to keep things fluid (it fits under a header container, and to the right of a left container)...
mainScrollPane.setSize(Math.round(stageWidth - leftContainer.width), Math.round(stageHeight - headerContainer.height));
mainScrollPane.source = mainContainer;
I'm dynamically creating movieclips and adding each one to the container...
mainContainer.addChild(boxMC);
In my library, boxMC is set to 400 pixels wide, yet I'm finding that each boxMC is displayed much wider than that.
When I resize the window, each boxMC doesn't scale in size (good).
I'm clearly not understanding the process for creating a fluid scrollPane that can be resized while having it's contents remain the size that I've created them at in the library. Can sometime please enlighten me?
Thank you.
The solution was not to give mainContainer width and height settings. So instead of mainContainer.graphics.drawRect(0,0,100,100); mainContainer.width = 500; mainContainer.height = 200; I just made it mainContainer.graphics.drawRect(0,0,100,100); then added movieclip don't scale their size when mainScrollPane is resized.
I have a simple bitmap image 3px wide and 150px high included as the top banner in my layout.
<s:BitmapImage id="blueBanner" source="{this.bmpimg}" width="100%"/>
The rest of the content is centered below this.
When the page opens no matter the size of the browser window, the image always fills the width available.
I have a browser window resize handler that resets my main content below the banner to the center of the new window size and this works perfectly.
But no matter how many times the browser is resized, the BitmapImage will never stretch wider than the original window width.
I have tried every property and method of BitmapImage that I think could affect this in the resize handler but nothing I can find has any effect at all.
I cannot understand how it remembers the original stage width to begin with.
Its parent containers are all set to 100% width and there are no unusual skins or any other reference to this object in the whole project except in a function where it can be included in the layout or not, but this function is never called in this case.
Can anyone offer any clue as to why it won't stretch automatically?

Simple , just set the width to screen.width and you are good to go.
<s:BitmapImage id="blueBanner" source="{this.bmpimg}" width="{screen.width}"/>
Thanks for all the responses. In fact I solved the problem by adding the BitmapImage line to the Application Skin. Once it's here as well as in the layout it works. I have no idea why it needs to be in both places, but once it's set up like this everything works correctly.
Setting ScaleMode makes no difference and setting screen.width either in the blueBanner tag or later in the resizeHandler (because not always available when the tag is run) also makes no difference in my layout.

Cocos2dx beginner here. Using Cocos2dx V3.10.
I've read lots of tutorials and documentation on Multi platform support across iOS/Android etc and in the main i get it. I'm using setDesignResolutionSize in combination with setContentScaleFactor and it's working out pretty well so far.
I do have one issue which i'm not sure of the best way to approach it.
My game is portrait and i'd like a particular sprite to be the same width on iphone4s and iphone5.
They both use the same design resolution size and content scale factor but on iphone4 the sprite is smaller than that on iphone4 (and iphone5).
I've attached two images to demonstrate what i mean.
As you can see on the iphone4 the sprite isn't quite the same distance away from the edges as the iphone5 is, which i assume is down to the difference in resolution.
Do i need to create another set of assets for this resolution and how would i go about setting those? As currently iphone4 and iphone5 both use the same scale and design size, ie:
glview->setDesignResolutionSize(designResolutionSize.width, designResolutionSize.height, ResolutionPolicy::NO_BORDER);
Size frameSize = glview->getFrameSize();
// if the frame's height is larger than the height of medium size.
if (frameSize.height > mediumResolutionSize.height)
{
director->setContentScaleFactor(MIN(largeResolutionSize.height/designResolutionSize.height, largeResolutionSize.width/designResolutionSize.width));
searchPaths.push_back("hd");
FileUtils::getInstance()->setSearchPaths(searchPaths);
}
Any help much appreciated.
This can be done in a way so that the game will look same no matter what device you use.
First of all, comment out all the following code in your AppDelegate.cpp
/* if (frameSize.height > mediumResolutionSize.height)
{
director->setContentScaleFactor(MIN(largeResolutionSize.height/designResolutionSize.height, largeResolutionSize.width/designResolutionSize.width));
}
// if the frame's height is larger than the height of small size.
else if (frameSize.height > smallResolutionSize.height)
{
director->setContentScaleFactor(MIN(mediumResolutionSize.height/designResolutionSize.height, mediumResolutionSize.width/designResolutionSize.width));
}
// if the frame's height is smaller than the height of medium sxize.
else
{
director->setContentScaleFactor(MIN(smallResolutionSize.height/designResolutionSize.height, smallResolutionSize.width/designResolutionSize.width));
}
*/
Now, make sure all of your assets have been developed in reference to a canvas size which is ideally the size of your background.
Let's say that size is customWidth x customHeight.
Now edit the following lines in AppDelegate.cpp as below:
glview->setDesignResolutionSize(customWidth, customHeight, ResolutionPolicy::EXACT_FIT);
Size frameSize = glview->getFrameSize();
Your game will now look same irrespective of the device, as long as aspect ratio is maintained(which is same for all the phones, but different for tablets).
Well I am working on an small website.
However I have problem with fixed position.
My header is 770px in width. It contain a couple of elements with it.
position: fixed; works really fine, but when I resize my website to another screen size, something like 640x480 the fixed element (header) cannot be fully visible in width.
I want it to be fixed for scrolling but I want it to be fully visible in width, if user is on smaller screen and cannot see it completely.
Here is an example on an wordpress theme.
http://dvl-den.net/
Same problem is with my small project. Try to open that website on 640x480 (resize browser) and you'll see my problem.
Thanks in advance.
I don't think there is a solution with CSS only properties. I'd try having position: absolute; on my CSS, and playing around JavaScript (my example requires jQuery) like:
jQuery(function($) { // document ready
var $win = $(window),
handler = function() {
// try not to overload browser, creating a throttle
var throttle,
throttleFn = function() {
// this is what happens on window resize
$('#header').css({
top: $win.scrollTop()
});
};
return function() {
clearTimeout(throttle);
throttle = setTimeout(throttleFn, 100);
};
};
$win.resize(handler());
});
It doesn't work really "cool" in mobile, but it's widely know there are mobile issues with fixed headers in web apps (different than native). If you need I can update with a JSFiddle example.
Check demo at: http://jsfiddle.net/qaKT7/ (you can play around with that 100 value to get a better experience, and also use .animate() instead of .css() to make it look fancier)
Try giving
min-width:770px;
or try with media queries
I think there're two ways:
Changing the width "770px" to a percentage.
Detecting the pixel height of screen, then adjusting the width according to this.
I am trying to replace the maximize button in my (swing) screen.
I want my frame to change it's size to my definition of max size and min size,
without the window moving its position.
I tried the following ( and encountered a problem in all )
1. Frame.setMaximumSize, Frame.setMinimumSize. did actually nothing.
2. tableFrame.addWindowStateListener(new WindowStateListener() {
public void windowStateChanged(WindowEvent e) {
then I resized the window
did actually pretty well job in managing the sizes - only that it jumped the screen to the top right corner every click .
(And all I need is to resize the window size when maximize )
3. obviously adding window listener on componentResized doesnt do the job because when I change the sizes to my wanted size - it enters an infinite loop.
thanks a lot
