Title: How I must know the width & height of the loaded image?
Post by: Lion on October 02, 2009, 11:32:35 AM

I create a window with a static object:

WINDOW
{
  X = 0
  Y = 0
  WIDTH = 1024
  HEIGHT = 768

  STATIC
  {
    NAME = "Background"
    X = 512
    Y = 320
  }
}

Then in a script I use the function SetImage() for static object.

How I must know the width & height of the loaded image?

You can't, I'm afraid. The static control size is independent on the image size. And there's currently no way of querying sprite frame dimensions from script.

Do I can to use the function SizeToFit() of static object?
// Changes the size of the control to fit the contained text or image.

I after to know a width and height of static object? Is it possible so to do?

SizeToFit() with images does not work. It is although written in a help:

Changes the size of the control to fit the contained text or image.

Why?

Why? I don't know, must have been drunk when writing the docs. Or the code. Or both.

Seriously, it's an omission.

Is it possible to do that SizeToFit() function worked and for images?
As it is written in a wme.chm.

It is very necessary...

The feature request has been noted. As wme is a hobby project the answer to all feature requests is "When -and if- it's done(tm)". Also wme is opensource so people are encouraged to add their own features and submit the code under the same license (lgpl).

EDIT: silly typo
