Refresh Canvas Problem

by Sean Pollock · in Torque Game Engine · 05/11/2006 (7:02 pm) · 2 replies

Hi,

I have a minor problem I hope some can help me with. I am making a non game using TGE so I need the torque window to act like a windows application. I have the torque window setup so you can drag the window to resize it and I also have the maximize and minimize buttons but my problem is when I resize the window either by dragging it or maximizing the window the canvas does not resize along with it.

I have looked all over the engine and can't find any clues to where I would start.

Basically I am looking for a similar affect as the Showtool Pro.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Sean

Still haven't figured how to force the canvas to resize\refresh when the main window is resized. If anyone know how to do this then please let me know. I have been searching the forums for two days with no success. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Hey sean -
i'm also interested in getting this done but haven't really looked into it yet.
please post if you learn any clues,
and i'll vice-versa.

i'm a bit pessimistic about getting it done elegantly just becuase it seems like torque really wants to be the source of window-size changes, but possibly it could be convinced to listen to the window.. we'll see.

cheers,
orion.
