Title: Image Stretch with window resize
Post by: Robonics on January 28, 2020, 11:58:18 pm

I was a bit unsure of whether to post this in Graphics or Window, but I think this will be the most relevant. I'm using SFML in C++and ran into an issue. How and I prevent my Images from resizing themselves? What I mean is that when I load a sprite, in this case a rectangle with a logo on it, how can I prevent it from being stretch with the window.
It should look like:(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/594700226309128223/671850718151311380/ArcadeLogo.png)
What it does look like:(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/594700226309128223/671850646311403542/Captureover9000.PNG)

Does anyone have any suggestions? I've already tried setting a sf::View, which did not work.

A custom sf::View is the way to go. This wiki article might explain it better: https://github.com/SFML/SFML/wiki/Source%3A-Letterbox-effect-using-a-view

Thanks, it helped. I was thinking something similar, but I couldn't find the right variable to draw to make it work. Like I didn't know

window.getSize().x

was a thing.
