GetViewportSize
The GetViewportSize function returns the width and height of the interior of the main Mira window.
w, h = GetViewportSize()
w and h are the width
and height of the Mira window, measured in screen pixels.
The script fragment below shows how to create a text output window having a specified width and height. The CreateTextWindowfunction accepts relative dimensions rather than absolute ones. For example, it takes a Window rectangle like (0.1, 0.7, 0.1, 0.6) relative to the size of the main Mira window. To create a Text Editor window that is 600 pixels wide x 400 pixels tall, anchored at the upper left corner, we would do the following:
|
function MakeTextWnd(sTitle,w,h) |
-- make a function to do this |
|
local wMira,hMira = GetViewportSize() |
-- maximum width and height |
|
local R = CRect:new() |
-- create a CRect object |
|
R:Set(0,w/wMira,0,h/hMira) |
-- scale to the viewport |
|
local W = CreateTextWindow(sTitle,R) |
-- format the string |
|
R:delete() |
-- no longer needed. |
|
return W |
-- return the window reference |
|
end |
|
|
|
|
|
T = MakeTextWnd("My Title",600,400) |
-- is returned the window pointer T |
