Rather than iterating over display modes using an index, there is a new function SDL_GetFullscreenDisplayModes() to get the list of available fullscreen modes on a display.
{
SDL_DisplayID display = SDL_GetPrimaryDisplay();
int num_modes = 0;
SDL_DisplayMode **modes = SDL_GetFullscreenDisplayModes(display, &num_modes);
if (modes) {
for (i = 0; i < num_modes; ++i) {
SDL_DisplayMode *mode = modes[i];
SDL_Log("Display %" SDL_PRIu32 " mode %d: %dx%d@%gHz, %d%% scale\n",
display, i, mode->pixel_w, mode->pixel_h, mode->refresh_rate, (int)(mode->display_scale * 100.0f));
}
SDL_free(modes);
}
}
SDL_GetDesktopDisplayMode() and SDL_GetCurrentDisplayMode() return pointers to display modes rather than filling in application memory.
Windows now have an explicit fullscreen mode that is set, using SDL_SetWindowFullscreenMode(). The fullscreen mode for a window can be queried with SDL_GetWindowFullscreenMode(), which returns a pointer to the mode, or NULL if the window will be fullscreen desktop. SDL_SetWindowFullscreen() just takes a boolean value, setting the correct fullscreen state based on the selected mode.
SDL_DisplayMode now includes the pixel size, the screen size and the relationship between the two. For example, a 4K display at 200% scale could have a pixel size of 3840x2160, a screen size of 1920x1080, and a display scale of 2.0.
* SDL 3.0 is going to be high DPI aware and officially separates screen coordinates from client pixel area
The public APIs to disable high DPI support have been removed
Work in progress on https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/7134
libdecor plugins can change the min/max window size values internally to enforce a minimum window size, and errors and crashes can result if the window size is below the internal limit.
On versions of libdecor >= 0.1.1, the minimum width and height can be queried and the minimum required window size will be enforced. The application requested window size is still respected, however, the actual window may be slightly larger than the drawable area to accommodate the required libdecor minimum size.
On version 0.1.0 of libdecor, which lacks the function to retrieve the minimum size, the internal limits are overridden before committing a frame, so that the internal limits always match the window size as a workaround, even if the window is technically smaller than the plugin would normally allow.
Fixes DPI awareness of testdrawchessboard (previously, the surface was
being created in points instead of pixels, resulting in the demo app
only drawing in a corner of the screen on High-DPI displays)
*_CreateWindowFramebuffer()/*_UpdateWindowFramebuffer(): are updated
to use SDL_GetWindowSizeInPixels instead of SDL_GetWindowSize() or
window->w/window->h.
Most of the _CreateWindowFramebuffer backends are untested except
for Windows.
Fixes#7047
This fixes the clang warning "Cast between pointer-to-function and pointer-to-object is an extension"
You can define SDL_FUNCTION_POINTER_IS_VOID_POINTER in your project to restore the previous behavior.
Fixes https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/2866
