Window / Switching between windows of different size in fullscreen

« on: March 14, 2009, 03:22:03 pm »

And again one more question concerning windows:

When we have two fullscreen windows of different screen resolution, and we want to switch between them using SetActive() and Show(), we have the problem that the DisplaySettings not correspond, but for both windows the DisplaySettings of the last created window are applied.

What is needed is an additional change of the Display Settings.
At least in MS-Windows it can be done with: "ChangeDisplaySettings()"

SFML does not provide anything, to do that with a function call, other than when creating a window, right?

Window / [SOLVED] difference: create new Window and recreate Window

« on: March 14, 2009, 02:48:18 pm »

I am sorry, but the problem was caused by simple carelessness  :oops:

Because, one major difference between creating a new and recreating an existing one (and besides the most obvious ...) is that you have n+1 windows when creating a new one, and only n windows when recreating one...
And my mistake was not calling Show(false) for the previous one...

Window / [SOLVED] difference: create new Window and recreate Window

« on: March 14, 2009, 01:32:09 pm »

My problem is, that somehow when I create a new Window (keeping the old one setting it inactive), textures that get loaded by the GUI-System I use won't show anymore.
If I simply recreate the existing window, this problem does not occur.

So I assume there might be some fundamental difference between creating a new and recreating an existing window. What about the RenderContext? When recreating a window, there is also a new RenderContext created, isn't it? So that would be the same for creating a new and recreating one?

Thank you for any hint.

Window / [SOLVED] Get info about window style

« on: March 13, 2009, 02:13:17 pm »

Thank you. It's not really important, I will just make some workaround for this particular case. I think you are right, usually, one wouldn't need that, therefore no need to provide it.

Window / [SOLVED] Get info about window style

« on: March 13, 2009, 11:29:21 am »

Is there a way to check the current style of the window, using the window object itself?
For example something like:
window.isFullscreen()
Or another elaborate way? I could not find anything in the code, but maybe I missed something obvious.

Thanks in advance.

General discussions / German forum

I agree. The community should not be seperated further. I think most german developers should be able to speak decent english. If not, they can maybe post here in german, and the germans here can help out (in case that does not oppose any non-german  :? ).

So, although I am german I'd rather only move in one Forum connected to SFML.

But anyway, best regards.
