[Scummvm-devel] Sam'n'Max help (litterally)

[Lars Persson]

Hi!
I have checked this now and it seems like the list was not really fitting inside of the 320x200 area (for those games runinning in that resolution) It looks nice in a 320x240 resolution. So I scaled down the list size to 140 pixels instead of 170, and that fits, but sadly the upto 15 help items does not quite fit. 

 

Fontheight is 10, so then 150 should be enough, but that will not be enough either. In a List I guess each item is around 12-14 (line height is 12) which should end up at around 180 pixels (which is 10 pixels more than the previously allocated 170). 

 

So what should the general advice be? An overflowing help dialog in 320x200 resolutions does n't look very good. Given the 140 pixels available (or around so), each textline in the list should max be 9 pixels high. Is this possible with the current theme setup? I guess I can always test it.

 

Best regards

Lars

Hi!
I think parts of the keymapper code is used in the WinCE and Symbian ports or?
I have had fixed a couple of issues with the keymapping dialogs for lowres configs in options and config dialogs. Probably only a slight change in the UI layout code for this to work. The current layout probably makes a little bit to wide layout and is causing the crash.
Is this a serious issue for 0.13.0 ? I guess I think I could fix that layout crash at least for the trunk, since it is also crashing on Symbian.

Cheers
Lars
