Hello forums,
maybe somebody can help me out here. I want to display texts by giving a rectangle and from that calculating character size and scale, and that is working fine so far(code below). Each text receives a width of 1/10th of the total screen, and then ten texts are rendered next to each other, spanning the whole width of the window.
However, as soon as I resize the window, the scaling breaks. See attachments for effects, the first screenshot displays the program before, and the second after resizing.
The sfml version I used is about five months old.
Minimal Example:
#include <string>
#include <SFML/Graphics/RenderWindow.hpp>
#include <SFML/Window/Event.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics/Text.hpp>
#include <iostream>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(640, 480), "Text Test");
window.setVerticalSyncEnabled(true);
sf::Font font;
font.loadFromFile("Font/FreeSans.ttf");
while(window.isOpen())
{
sf::Event event;
while(window.pollEvent(event))
{
if(event.type == sf::Event::Closed) window.close();
}
window.clear();
sf::Text text;
text.setFont(font);
const float HEIGHT = 0.025;
const sf::Vector2u winSize = window.getSize();
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
text.setString("TEST" + std::to_string(i));
// scale text height using font size
text.setCharacterSize(winSize.y * HEIGHT);
// position text
text.setPosition(winSize.x * i * 0.1f, winSize.y * i / (float) 50);
// scale the width using the total window size, every text gets 1/10th (supposedly)
text.setScale(winSize.x * 0.1f / text.getLocalBounds().width, 1.f);
window.draw(text);
}
window.display();
}
return 0;
}
