Allowing resizing window pyGame

Allowing resizing window pyGame

To allow resizing of the Pygame window, you need to set the pygame.RESIZABLE flag when creating the Pygame window. Additionally, you'll want to handle the VIDEORESIZE event to update the display surface when the window is resized. Here's a basic example:

import pygame import sys pygame.init() # Set the initial window size screen_width, screen_height = 640, 480 screen = pygame.display.set_mode((screen_width, screen_height), pygame.RESIZABLE) pygame.display.set_caption("Resizable Pygame Window") running = True while running: for event in pygame.event.get(): if event.type == pygame.QUIT: running = False elif event.type == pygame.VIDEORESIZE: # Handle window resize event screen = pygame.display.set_mode((event.w, event.h), pygame.RESIZABLE) # Clear the screen and draw something screen.fill((255, 255, 255)) pygame.draw.rect(screen, (255, 0, 0), (100, 100, 200, 200)) pygame.display.flip() pygame.quit() sys.exit()

In this example:

  1. We initialize Pygame and set the initial window size using pygame.display.set_mode. We also set the pygame.RESIZABLE flag to allow window resizing.

  2. The main game loop handles events. When a pygame.VIDEORESIZE event occurs (indicating a window resize event), we update the display surface with the new window dimensions using pygame.display.set_mode.

  3. Inside the loop, we clear the screen, draw a red rectangle, and update the display.

  4. When the user closes the window (clicks the close button), the loop exits, and we quit Pygame.

With this code, you'll have a resizable Pygame window that can be resized by the user, and the content inside the window will adapt to the new dimensions.

    • Description: Users often search for code examples that demonstrate how to implement window resizing functionality in Pygame.
    import pygame pygame.init() # Set up the screen screen_width = 800 screen_height = 600 screen = pygame.display.set_mode((screen_width, screen_height)) running = True while running: for event in pygame.event.get(): if event.type == pygame.QUIT: running = False elif event.type == pygame.VIDEORESIZE: screen = pygame.display.set_mode((event.w, event.h), pygame.RESIZABLE) pygame.display.update() pygame.quit()

    • Description: Users may want to know how to enable window resizing in Pygame to allow users to adjust the window size as needed.
    import pygame pygame.init() # Set up the screen screen_width = 800 screen_height = 600 screen = pygame.display.set_mode((screen_width, screen_height), pygame.RESIZABLE) running = True while running: for event in pygame.event.get(): if event.type == pygame.QUIT: running = False pygame.display.update() pygame.quit()
