Window / "setSize()" does not work

« on: March 03, 2022, 06:59:18 pm »

Hello,

I use the function "setSize" to resize a window when the user makes it too small.
This same exact code worked fine on Windows 10 but on Linux Mint - Cinnamon it's giving me problems.

The code resizes the window only once in a while instead of constantly resizing.

This is my code:

void Game::proportionateWin()
{
        printf("Winsize : %4d %4d \n",w->getSize().x,w->getSize().y);

        //changes window size to the minimum size (WIN_MIN) (it's 600)
        if (w->getSize().x < WIN_MIN){
                w->setSize(sf::Vector2u(WIN_MIN, w->getSize().y));
                printf("resizing!");
        }
        ....
 

 

I call this function when the window gets resized here:

                if (event.type == sf::Event::Resized) {

                        //printf("resized\n");
                        proportionateWin();
                }

When I run my application every printf is triggered when making the window too small.
And yet the window does not resize.

Edit: Ok so I realized what makes the window resize: when I change the window size by dragging it fast it resizes immediatly but if I slowly drag the window the resizing doesn't take place.

General / Sprite disappearing after recreating window

« on: June 17, 2020, 05:38:43 pm »

I'm really new to SFML.
After i recreate a window one of my sprites disappears.
It's the sprite that i use to make the fade effect and it has a completely black 1080x1080 texture

this is the code that i used to recreate the window:

mainWindow->create(sf::VideoMode(screenX, screenY), "Game", sf::Style::Fullscreen);
