04/16/2020, 8:19 AMwhat happens if you set it to .75 though? I wonder... just out of interest - b

04/16/2020, 8:19 AMi guess your UI will be too small for your screen, but are the haxeui text elements sharp? - b

04/16/2020, 8:21 AMBlurry text can still be noticed - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/16/2020, 8:21 AMOk, fair enough - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/16/2020, 8:21 AMso i guess its a "deeper" issue... - b

04/16/2020, 8:22 AMlet me know if you find out something, and if there is something haxeui can tweak... always interested in better text rendering! - m

04/16/2020, 2:32 PM@User I digged a bit inside openfl/lime and it seems the windows native renderer is SDL based. It's not quite certain, but it seems SDL doesn't actually handle Windows scaling properly. I found this valuable information https://discourse.libsdl.org/t/wip-windows-high-dpi-support/22446/4 but I still need to dig deeper in SDL code history to find out more, and to figure out if lime use/implement such mechanism. - m

04/16/2020, 2:32 PMI'm new on the Haxe/Lime/OpenFL codebase so it's not quite clear to me if I undestand it properly. - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/16/2020, 2:34 PMOK, yeah, that is interesting... - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/16/2020, 2:34 PMmaybe it something that will "disappear" with a new version of SDL? - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/16/2020, 2:34 PMMight make sense to post on the openfl forums, might get more info there - m
most-elephant-7180
04/16/2020, 2:35 PMSure I will keep you informed - b

04/16/2020, 2:35 PMthanks 👍 - m

04/17/2020, 7:04 AM@bright-gpu-74537 Joshua confirmed lime Windows target doesn’t handle display scaling awareness - m
most-elephant-7180
04/17/2020, 7:05 AMJust because SDL doesn’t so changes must be made to lime ndll to handle it - m
most-elephant-7180
04/17/2020, 7:07 AMIt’s not only a text rendering issue but a general renderer scaling concern where target platform depends on cpp lime code - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/17/2020, 7:34 AMRight, gotcha... so SDL will need a patch first... thanks for letting me know - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/18/2020, 10:49 AMstill wip, but i think its generally working fine... just need to make sure tabs work - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/18/2020, 11:12 AM.... easy 🙂 - b

04/19/2020, 7:42 AMreally need to get an iphone and work out a haxeui-ios... ... meaning im gonna have to learn obj-c ... ... ... ... which ive been putting off for... ... ... ... life? - o

04/19/2020, 12:02 PM@User I had a play with swift and obj-c quite a long time back. This is the same code in Swift and ObjectiveC You should find the Swift quite easy to follow as it's not so different from Haxe, then if you relate it back to the ObjectiveC version you can get a feel for how to adjust stuff, perhaps my experiment is not helpful. - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/19/2020, 12:03 PMright, yeah... ill have to have a play around at some point... but before then ill need to buy a junky iphone, etc - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/19/2020, 12:03 PMi guess it will have to be objc rather than swift so hxcpp can work with it - o

04/19/2020, 12:04 PMYou can simulate it on a mac you don't need a phone to test concepts - o
orange-van-60470
04/19/2020, 12:04 PMHugh may actually support swift sort of - b
bright-gpu-74537
04/19/2020, 12:04 PMoh yeah? The simulator is good is it?
