LUA Resolution Problem

[Veo]

Dear MTA:SA Community

 

 

I have the issue, that i want do with

dxGetTextWidth & dxDrawRectangle 

a Background, for the Map Text, it looks like that.

It works fine in 1920x1080, but if i Change it to 1360x768, then it looks like this

Heres some Code:

 

===============

function resY(value)
    return (value/1080) * y
end

function resX(value)
    return (value/1920) * s
end

===============

local length = dxGetTextWidth(_MapName,resY(1),fonts["normal"][3])
rectangle = dxDrawRectangle(s*0.008,y*0.957,length+55,y*0.030, tocolor ( 0, 266, 0, 250 ) )

The IIYAMA rule: Scale EVERYTHING only over the Y as. Except for the X position.

We are very lucky that they hardly design monitors with a portrait orientation... else it would have blown off my mind.

This could be one of your issues, an absolute value:

dxDrawRectangle(s*0.008,y*0.957, length + 55,y*0.030, tocolor ( 0, 266, 0, 250 ) )

dxDrawRectangle(s*0.008,y*0.957,length + resY(55),y*0.030, tocolor ( 0, 266, 0, 250 ) )

Thanks, i tried. but its still the same issue..

@IIYAMA i dont understand it, why that is not working.

[Dimos7]

local sw, sh =guiGetScreenSize() 
local sx, sy = sw/1920, sh/1080 dxDrawRectangle(sx*0.008,sy*0.957,length + sx*55,sy*0.030, tocolor ( 0, 266, 0, 250 ) )

Where is your dxDrawText function in your code?

I can give it to you Tomorrow, Hes using this '_MapName' The Map Name.

Well, I always use this code to draw DX stuff, and I recommend you to try it so

local sx,sy = guiGetScreenSize()
local px,py = 1366,768 --Put your resolution here
local x,y =  (sx/px),(sy/py)

--Example code
dxDrawRectangle(x*0, y*0, x*1366, y*80, tocolor(0, 0, 0, 170), false)
dxDrawText("Test", x*0, y*0, x*1366, y*80, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.5, "pricedown", "center", "center", false, false, false, false, false)

It always fits in all resolutions.

I want that for all resolutions, Not just for 1360

@Erknneto that dosnt Help me for mine code.. someone has maybe Discord?

 

@Edit: If the Map changed, its change the Rectangle to the Map Name length.  The Rectangle fits the Map length Name

@Veo did you try my code?

Yes, i do.

 

Here:

			local x,y = guiGetScreenSize()
			local sw, sh =guiGetScreenSize() 
			local length = dxGetTextWidth(_MapName,resY(1),fonts["normal"][3])
			rectangle = dxDrawRectangle(s*0.008,y*0.957,length + sx*55,y*0.030, tocolor ( 0, 266, 0, 250 ) )

That code works for all resolutions, just put your resolution there and edit. It will work fine in all resolutions, just edit in your resolution and test in others.

it WILL fit in each resolution - this is the simplest way. Your coordinates will be multiplied by (for example x: 1366/player_resolution) -> Bigger resolution x>0, smaller - 0<x<1

You can try it yourself by changing in-game/pc resolutions. By the way you should multiply dxDrawText's scale too

local sw, sh =guiGetScreenSize() 
local sx, sy = sw/1920, sh/1080 dxDrawRectangle(sx*0.008,sy*0.957,length + sx*55,sy*0.030, tocolor ( 0, 266, 0, 250 ) )

That wasn't my code
