Hi there,
After getting to know views a little bit I find them a nice way to scale images on screen. Unfortunately I tried to limit the Area, in which the view is active.
I guess there's no way to do that, because the view seems to affect the whole screen (why am i asking then?:>), but if there's any option to do something similiar it would be nice to hear about it before I'm doing an other approach.
On the image below is what I try to achieve:
Let's say we have a RenderTarget which measures 800x600, then the left side should be a view, (half-size and center doesn't matter), but it shoult just occupy 600x600 Units, so that I can render a "own" GUI area on the remaining space of 200x600.
The reason why i can't just push the GUI-Box to View.Rectangle.right - 200 is, that I've got a Zoom-Function in my App and the GUI-Box (realized with sf::Shape or something similiar) shouldn't change it's optical size.
In my opinion the least work would mean scaling the GUI-Box inversely proportional to the Zoom of the View and set it to View.right - GUIBox.width. Is there a more efficient way to do this ?
Thank you for reading!
