  • I tried to support multiple screen for mobile game. I found 2 totally different way of doing it.

    here are these two methods:

    1. Set property Fullscreen mode to "Scale outer".

    2. Get property Fullscreen mode to "Letterbox Scale". Get PlatformInfo.WindowInnerWidth & PlatformInfo.WindowInnerHeight and apply it to canvas size.

    By following these 2 different methods I got same desired result. But I don't know if there is any difference in both methods.

  • I do something similar to the 2nd method you mentioned - On browser resize, set canvas size to PlatformInfo.WindowInnerWidth and height. I then do "wait 0 seconds" twice, and then I copy & paste the same "set canvas size" event below this (seems to help make this work more reliably). Then I use anchor behaviour on objects, or position/size things with events.

    I don't know if there's a bad reason to do this, but it helps give me the exact control that I need to support portrait, landscape, and even ultra-wide screen monitors.

  • Try Construct 3

  • With option 1, you can make any screen size and ratio full screen.

    Just need to apply it smart.

  • Jase00 How do you manage when your viewport size is greater than PlatformInfo.WindowInnerWidth and height? all my contents are out of screen. Even I scaled layout but few portion of screen is empty
