Betreff: [agl-discussions] HomeScreen dimension


Hello AGL

Maybe an obvious question, but I just want to confirm.


I think CES2017 demo apps and homescreen expects that they are on 1080 x 1920 display (in portrait position), and the 15" touch display of this size was used for demo.


Then, my assumption below should be true?


1) HomeScreen app is hardcoded to 1080x1920, however it could be configured to other dimension by modifying the source.

JB: yes.

2) Other demo apps may have hardcoding to the above display size.

JB: yes.

2) Window manager is separate from HomeScreen, so that part should work with other size displays without modification.

JB: yes.


So, though image resources may need change, modifying homescreen and apps in their qml code can make them appear properly on more smaller pr landscape position displays.


Or, the homescreen app and demo apps are already ready for non-HD-portrait displays?

JB: Talking about homescreen: no (well... you can change this line to scale: ...homescreen/qml/main.qml, line 39: scale: 1.0 ). The reason for hardcoded resolution was CES. But as you unserstood correctly, this is only a HomeScreen restriction. The WindowManager can handle other resolution, too.

(I am seeing on my Raspberry Pi screen the whole homesreen is fit in display, so if drivers can fit it I may be use it with any display size though.)
