This function allows for the positioning of dxDraw calls to be automatically adjusted according to the client's aspect ratio setting. This lasts for a single execution of an event handler for one of the following events: onClientRender, onClientPreRender and onClientHUDRender. So the function has to be called every frame, just like dxDraws.

Syntax

bool dxSetAspectRatioAdjustmentEnabled ( bool bEnabled, [ float sourceRatio = 4/3 ] )
Required Arguments
  • bEnabled: Should the adjustment be enabled or disabled.
Optional Arguments

NOTE: When using optional arguments, you might need to supply all arguments before the one you wish to use.

  • sourceRatio (default: 4/3): MISSING_PARAM_DESC

Returns

  • bool: value

Returns true when it was changed successfully, or false otherwise.

Code Examples

scx,scy = guiGetScreenSize()


addEventHandler( "onClientRender", root,
    function()
        dxDrawText( "Hello", 300, 300 )             -- Text will be drawn at 300,300
        dxSetAspectRatioAdjustmentEnabled( true )
        dxDrawText( "Goodbye", 0.78*scx, 0.22*scy )  -- Text will be drawn just below HUD money, with any aspect ratio
    end
)
