System Screen Resolution

Screen Resolution
1.2.0.2

By Sevion

Very efficient method of getting a player's screen resolution. Requires players to "calibrate" the screen.
V1.3.0.0 will appear with a separate module library to allow for the easier creation of dialogs (eliminates the scripters' need to multiply all values by aspect ratio).

Docs

What Screen Resolution does:

Screen Resolution allows scripters to get a player's screen resolution and aspect ratio to easily display the correct sizes and x/y offests for dialogs and other on-screen objects.

How Screen Resolution was made:

While making some dialogs, I got the idea that while they display correctly in my 1920 x 1080 resolution, it may not display correctly in any others. So, I tested around and was correct. With this, you just have to use the getAsPercent functions and you'll get the proper values.

Get a player's screen properties:

- [ljass]lib_sr_getResY( EventPlayer() )[/ljass]
- [ljass]lib_sr_getRatio( EventPlayer() )[/ljass]
- [ljass]lib_sr_isCalibrated( EventPlayer() )[/ljass]
- [ljass]lib_sr_getXAsPercent( value, EventPlayer() )[/ljass]
- [ljass]lib_sr_getYAsPercent( value, EventPlayer() )[/ljass]
Calibrate a player's screen:

This was what I was looking for 1,5 week ago, yet calibrating isn't the perfect solution. But I guess there is no way to detect the screen resolution without calibrating? At least, nothing I tried seemed to work. Yet I didn't want to make a calibration system by myself as I highly doubted it would work out. I mean, calibrating is a solution, yet I doubt it's very efficient as a lot of people are simply too retarded to do it. In wc3 I made a game, very simple with only 1 skill (morph skill). Only 70% of the people understood what it did (change from water to land / land to water form). That can't be that hard, or is it?

Good job anyway. +rep.

Well, calibration is really simple and efficient ( in this ) anyhow. It's a simple click. And you only have to calibrate once every time you change your resolution ( and how many times do you do that unless you're moving around the windowed mode

)

Also, maybe sometime I'll make it GUIable.

Edit: I just saw an error in the code. I forget to save the calibrated boolean

Well I haven't used dialogs so far but I don't see how this would not be useful.If I get around to creating some (because I'm addicted to triggering random stuff) I'll be sure to post something more constructive.

Update: V1.1.0.0 has been released with the Misclick Algorithm.

DialogX has been pushed back to V1.2.0.0 (I am considering releasing as a separate library instead of a module)

Sevion · Jul 25, 2011

Update: V1.2.0.1 has been released with a massive increase (83 new resolutions) in resolutions and are now ordered in most commonly used.

DialogX has been pushed back to 1.3.0.0.

Update: V1.2.0.2 has been released with the additions of the getAsPercent functions.

I feel slightly retarded for not knowing this.. How do I use it? First I create a custom script trigger and copy paste your code, and then what?
If I (on my 1920x1080 resolution screen) got 500x400 dialog box, then what do I do with you function to make it scale with other resolutions??

Sevion · Feb 22, 2012

You have to call "lib_sr_calibrate" on a player. Once it's calibrated, you can get the resolution values with "lib_sr_getResX" and "lib_sr_getResY".

Uhm, If I wan't to check it for all players, how would that look? (I'm not expirienced with custom script)

I will have to multiply the value by a percentage (0.5 for 50%) value and scale it for a % of the screen.
BTW, I'm getting these two errors when I import the script:

I am pretty sure it's because it also uses Sevion's DebugMode snippet for debugging.

Sevion · Feb 23, 2012

Unfortunately I believe an update has ruined the system. :-/

And yes, DebugMode is my library linked by Siretu.

Okay thanks

I will pray for a fixed version getting done, but take your time, we're in no hurry
