NoHighDPI - Disable High DPI on Android devices

[FloatingBanana]

It's my first post in this community, sorry for anything

High DPI scaling on Android is very annoying, especially when you use both the Windows and Android to work with the same project.

There is a trick to solve this using love.window.fromPixels and love.window.toPixels, so I made this library to do this for you!

How to use

You just need to do this:

Code: Select all

nohdpi = require "nohighdpi"

function love.load()
    --Pass "graphics", "mouse" and/or "touch"
    --as arguments to replace the given modules.
    --If you don't give any arguments, then
    --all modules will be replaced.
    nohighdpi:replace()
end

And voilà, you can use LÖVE normally without worrying about DPI scaling!

Manual mode

You can also use this library manually:

Code: Select all

nohdpi = require "nohighdpi"

function love.load()

end

function love.draw()
    --You can optionally give a custom resolution
    nohdpi:start(800, 600)
    
    --Draw your things here
    love.graphics.circle("line", nohdpi:mouseX(), nohdpi:mouseY(), 5, 100)

    --You can also change the resolution
    nohdpi:rescale(1000, 675)
    
    nohdpi:stop()
end

function love.update(dt)

end

function love.mousepressed(x, y, button, isTouch)
    x, y = nohdpi:toResized(x, y)
    
    --Use it normally. The same goes to mousereleased, touchpressed, touchreleased...
end

Using only "graphics" manually

Code: Select all

nohdpi = require "nohighdpi"

function love.load()
    nohdpi:replace("mouse", "touch")
end

function love.draw()
    nohdpi:start()

    love.graphics.circle("line", love.mouse.getX(), love.mouse.getY(), 5, 100)
 
    nohdpi:stop()
end

function love.update(dt)

end

function love.mousepressed(x, y, button, isTouch)
    
end

It's nice that you made this library; I've struggled with this myself. Note however that the next version (11.3 hopefully) will have a built-in setting for this. https://bitbucket.org/rude/love/commits ... 53a78b6eb0
