WME sources discussion / Re: Game Vs. Monitor Aspect Ratios

I thought, that only window-type objects were needed in black bars. And made some progress.
1) Changed viewport in CUIWindow::Display
2) That wasn't enough for inventory box (as well as for response box, I thought). Changed CAdInventoryBox::Display as like as CUIWindow::Display. The conditions were only modified
3) Changed viewport for mouse cursor
By the way, do you know, that mouse cursor can be moved under black bars? I think, it's someway strange to have ability to move cursor, while can't see it. Before changing CBGame::DrawCursor I tried
4) In Game object there were provided new properties RealWidth and RealHeight. Scripts were changed a little
5) Current problem is in transparency of objects in black bars region: Game.ActiveObject doesn't detect objects out of ScreenRect. For example, if Inventory.Y is equal to -Inventory.Height/2, the window has transparent upper half of itself but active lower half. I have stuck in CBRenderer::GetObjectAt method. And here I pass. I can't understand clearly how m_RectList works with: why/where/when object-candidate for ActiveObject become transparent?
6*) May back buffer size be not (m_RealWidth x m_RealHeight)? (for example, (m_Width+m_DrawOffsetX x m_Height+m_DrawOffsetY)) Would it ever possible?
1) Changed viewport in CUIWindow::Display
Code: [Select]

if(!m_Visible) return S_OK;
#ifdef WME_D3D9
CBRenderD3D* rend = (CBRenderD3D*)Game->m_Renderer;
D3DVIEWPORT old_vp;
if(!m_ClipByScreen)
{
rend->m_Device->GetViewport(&old_vp);
D3DVIEWPORT vp = old_vp;
vp.X = 0;
vp.Y = 0;
vp.Width = rend->m_RealWidth;
vp.Height = rend->m_RealHeight;
rend->m_Device->SetViewport(&vp);
}
#endif

}m_ClipByScreen is new window bool property describing of whether the current window should be clipped by screen rectangle (I mean, ScreenRect = MonitorRect - BlackBars). Default value is TRUE. Also m_ClipByScreen was provided in scripts through ScGetProperty/ScSetProperty.2) That wasn't enough for inventory box (as well as for response box, I thought). Changed CAdInventoryBox::Display as like as CUIWindow::Display. The conditions were only modified
Code: [Select]
if(m_Window)if(!m_Window->m_ClipByScreen)3) Changed viewport for mouse cursor
Code: [Select]
HRESULT CBGame::DrawCursor(CBSprite* Cursor)
{
if(!Cursor) return E_FAIL;
if(Cursor!=m_LastCursor)
{
Cursor->Reset();
m_LastCursor = Cursor;
}
#ifdef WME_D3D9
CBRenderD3D* rend = (CBRenderD3D*)Game->m_Renderer;
D3DVIEWPORT old_vp;
rend->m_Device->GetViewport(&old_vp);
D3DVIEWPORT vp = old_vp;
vp.X = 0;
vp.Y = 0;
vp.Width = rend->m_RealWidth;
vp.Height = rend->m_RealHeight;
rend->m_Device->SetViewport(&vp);
#endif
HRESULT res = Cursor->Draw(m_MousePos.x, m_MousePos.y);
#ifdef WME_D3D9
rend->m_Device->SetViewport(&old_vp);
#endif
return res;
}By the way, do you know, that mouse cursor can be moved under black bars? I think, it's someway strange to have ability to move cursor, while can't see it. Before changing CBGame::DrawCursor I tried
Code: [Select]
Game.LockMouseRect(0, 0, Game.ScreenWidth, Game.ScreenHeight)but it didn't have any effect. I'm not sure, but will not be better replace last part in CBGame::GetMousePos withCode: [Select]
if(m_MouseLockRect.left != 0 || m_MouseLockRect.right != 0 || m_MouseLockRect.top != 0 || m_MouseLockRect.bottom != 0)
{
.
.

}"||"-version doesn't conflict with Game.LockMouseRect() behavior, but dislike "&&"- one can take parameter 0.4) In Game object there were provided new properties RealWidth and RealHeight. Scripts were changed a little
Code: [Select]
var Inventory = Game.GetInventoryWindow();
if((Game.RealHeight-Game.ScreenHeight)/2>=Inventory.Height)
{
Inventory.ClipByScreen = FALSE;
Inventory.Y = -Inventory.Height;
Game.InventoryVisible = TRUE;
Game.LockMouseRect(0, Inventory.Y, Game.ScreenWidth, Game.ScreenHeight);
}else{
Game.AttachScript("scripts\game_loop.script");
Game.LockMouseRect(0, 0, Game.ScreenWidth, Game.ScreenHeight);
}Of course, that's not beginner level, but not bad ability, I suppose.5) Current problem is in transparency of objects in black bars region: Game.ActiveObject doesn't detect objects out of ScreenRect. For example, if Inventory.Y is equal to -Inventory.Height/2, the window has transparent upper half of itself but active lower half. I have stuck in CBRenderer::GetObjectAt method. And here I pass.

6*) May back buffer size be not (m_RealWidth x m_RealHeight)? (for example, (m_Width+m_DrawOffsetX x m_Height+m_DrawOffsetY)) Would it ever possible?
I also think about that black border. But my possible solution is laid in the sources (export new Game properties RealWidth and RealHeight in CBGame::ScGetProperty with standard ScreenWidth and ScreenHeight, modify CBRenderer::SetScreenViewport method and provide it in CBGame::ScCallMethod as "SetScreenViewport"). Since the border isn't my option only, it'll be interesting to listen to what Mnemonic said.
(to left top corner?) caused by SetCursorPos... Well, I'm not sure...
In the documentation I find next information
