As the title said, I want to fit the game canvas inside a div (on an HTML page) and have the game scale to the size of the div. Instead, it is naturally scaling the browser width, no matter the HTML/CSS voodoo I use on it.

Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place? I am unsure. Help?

Try Browser.WindowInnerHeight and Browser.WindowInnerWidth expressions.

If they give you the correct div dimensions, set canvas size to these numbers.

Also, have you tried iFrame instead of the div?

I guess I'll have to mess with those numbers and see. I was hoping to avoid an iFrame, but it's not the end of the world if I end up having to go that route. Thanks for your input.
