I am making a game using the Phaser Framework for Android. I need to make the canvas fill the entire screen width and then flood it with background color, then put content in the center of screen. Currently, even though I already set the width of the canvas to window width, Phaser still reset it to content width, which is smaller, then filling only the content width with background.
How do I stop Phaser from using content width?
var gameObj = new Phaser.Game($(".parent").width(), 700, Phaser.CANVAS, 'parent');
gameObj.stage.backgroundColor = '#A6E5F5';
gameObj.load.image('prld', 'prl.png');
gameObj.scale.scaleMode = Phaser.ScaleManager.SHOW_ALL;
gameObj.scale.pageAlignHorizontally = true;
gameObj.scale.pageAlignVertically = true;
gameObj.scale.setScreenSize(true);
gameObj.scale.refresh();
gameObj.stage.backgroundColor = '#A6E5F5';
// Load Content Here
gameObj.load.image('h1', 'res1/h1.png');
gameObj.load.image('h2', 'res1/h2.png');
....
g = gameObj.add.group();
g.create(20, 20, 'h1');
g.create(60, 20, 'h2');
....
i use this code in my game and it work very nice without changing in position of any elements
var targetWidth = 720; // the width of the game we want
var targetHeight = 480; // the height of the game we want
// additional ratios
//Small – 360x240
//Normal – 480x320
//Large – 720x480
//XLarge – 960x640
//XXLarge – 1440x960
var deviceRatio = (window.innerWidth/window.innerHeight); //device aspect ratio
var newRatio = (targetHeight/targetWidth)*deviceRatio; //new ratio to fit the screen
var newWidth = targetWidth*newRatio;
var newHeight = targetHeight;
var gameWidth = newWidth;
var gameHeight = newHeight;
var gameRendrer = Phaser.AUTO;
and this code for Boot state
game.scale.scaleMode = Phaser.ScaleManager.SHOW_ALL;
game.scale.pageAlignHorizontally = true;
game.scale.pageAlignVertically = true;
game.scale.forceLandscape = true;
game.scale.setScreenSize(true);
this for landscape mode if you want to make it for portrait change width and height like
var targetWidth = 480; // the width of the game we want
var targetHeight = 720; // the height of the game we want
also force it to portrait
this code work well in my games
You need Phaser 2.2+ for this, but if you want the canvas to fill the entire screen space available you would do:
var game = new Phaser.Game("100%", "100%", Phaser.CANVAS, 'parent');
...
game.scale.scaleMode = Phaser.ScaleManager.RESIZE;
Also you should not use pageAlign if you're using 100% dimensions. You also don't need to call refresh or setScreenSize.
When working in the RESIZE scale mode you can add a function to your States called 'resize'. It will be called whenever the screen dimensions change (orientation event perhaps) and be passed 2 parameters: width and height. Use those to adjust your game content layout.
You may want to get the Phaser Scale Manager book, it covers all this in lots more detail (caveat: I wrote it, but it has a "pay what you want" price, including completely free)
