High DPI Window Size Discrepancy

As far as I know this wasnt changed in 1.2.164: Defold 1.2.164 has been released

It’s not listed, but it did change on 1.2.164. Just re-tested this code:

local function window_callback (self, event, data)
	if (event == window.WINDOW_EVENT_RESIZED) then
		print ('CALLBACK SIZE', data.width, data.height)
	end
end

function init (self)
	window.set_listener (window_callback)
end

Windows 10, html5 build. On 1.2.163 you will get a callback immediately. On 1.2.164 onwards, you will not get the initial callback, but it will get called (as expected) whenever you resize the browser manually.

I asked about it here before:

Defold 1.2.164 has been released

This is for HTML5 builds (tested with Scale mode: Downscale Fit, but probably the same for other scaling modes) On 1.2.163: window.WINDOW_EVENT_RESIZED is being called immediately upon game launch (callback is registered from init) On 1.2.164: window.WINDOW_EVENT_RESIZED is only called if you start resizing the browser manually. However, the original game project’s dimensions may already be different upon game launch, so there is currently no way to detect the new dimensions immediately?

There’s window.get_size() now that ‘fixes’ that part of the problem though.
