HTML5：调整画布大小

Question

All this time I worked on an app in a 800x480 resolution (popular phone resolution).

My canvas HTML:

<canvas id="main" width="800" height="480">

Now to make it fullscreen for other resolutions, I do the following after a resize event:

$('#main').css('height', window.innerHeight);
$('#main').css('width', window.innerWidth);

This works but the problem is I can't maintain the aspect ratio this way. 800x480 is 4:3, but if I run this app on a 5:3 phone, some things (especially circles) will look stretched.

Is there any way to make it look good on all resolutions without having to create a unique set of images and code for every aspect ratio?

Answer 1

CSS properties width and height stretch the canvas, in order to scale the board, you must use .attr instead of .css , this will work, but, something to note:

If you want the canvas to look perfect on mobile phones, too, you must pay attention to window.devicePixelRatio .

What's devicePixelRatio

MDN:

The devicePixelRatio property returns the ratio between physical pixels and device independent pixels in the current display.

What does it mean? it means how many pixels does a device show, in one physical pixel.

If a device's pixel ratio is 2, it means two graphical pixels are drawn in a single physical pixel.

In order to make your canvas look perfect, you must do this trick:

set width and height of canvas to the amount you want multiplied by devicePixelRatio, ie

$('canvas').attr({
  'width': window.innerWidth*devicePixelRatio,
  'height': window.innerHeight*devicePixelRatio
});

Then, scale your canvas down with CSS:

$('canvas').css({
  'width': window.innerWidth + 'px',
  'height': window.innerHeight + 'px'
});

It seems innerWidth and innerHeight are not right at first, I tried wrapping the code in a 100 milisecond setTimeout and it worked, I guess you can reduce the delay to something like 10 miliseconds, test it.

Answer 2

You can use @media for different resolutions like tablets and phones for example

@media only screen and (max-device-width : 640px) {
/* Styles */
}
