Window / Re: Make window hidden when created

« on: December 18, 2012, 06:41:32 am »

Thanks, I haven't messed with view much yet. It worked perfect.  Except I had to recenter it.

Final working code for a square screen.

int windowScale = 2;
int windowSize = 256;
sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(windowSize*windowScale, windowSize*windowScale), "Resize test");

sf::View gameView;
gameView.setSize(windowSize, windowSize);
gameView.setCenter(windowSize/2,windowSize/2);
window.setView(gameView);

//...rest of code

Window / Make window hidden when created

« on: December 18, 2012, 06:16:05 am »

Hello, I'm using SFML 2.0 and am trying to make a simple game using small textures. I want it to display at x2 the original size when first loaded, so immediately after creating the renderwindow I resize and move it.

int windowScale = 2;
sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(256, 256), "Resize test");
window.setSize(sf::Vector2u(window.getSize().x*windowScale,window.getSize().x*windowScale));
window.setPosition(window.getPosition()-sf::Vector2i(window.getPosition().x/windowScale,window.getPosition().y)/windowScale);

//...rest of code
 

Here's the problem, the small screen appears for a brief moment before resizing.

Is there any way to make a window hidden until after it's resized?
I even tried hiding it using setVisible to hide it immediately after creation, resizing, then making it visible again. It didn't work.
