Themes / [Help] Image format based on emulator

« on: October 31, 2015, 12:20:52 PM »

Hey ho 

First of, I'm sorry for my English. I'm from Germany.

I trying to make a very modern looking Layout, but i stuck a little.

This is the actual progress of my layout:


I want to fix the size of the Boxart(flyer) and the screenshots, so all images of that type have the same size after scraping.

But i need to scale them, without changing there aspect ration.

I'm new with Squirrel but this is what i came up with:

Code: [Select]

// here Variables with width and hight of the different consoles

local emu = "[Emulator]";

local ttext = fe.add_text( "test", 640, 990, 640, 90 );    // for testing
local screenshot = fe.add_artwork( "screens", 640, 0, sceenshot_width, sceenshot_height );

if ( emu == "gb" ) {
    local sceenshot_width = gb_width * 8;
    local sceenshot_height = gb_height * 8;
    ttext.text.msg = "gb";    // for testing
}
The sting is working, when i use this it prints gb:

Code: [Select]

local ttext = fe.add_text( emu, 640, 990, 640, 90 );    // for testing
What am I doing wrong, or is there a better solution?
