libgdx

all. Just wondering how to make my desktop app go fullscreen upon start up. I am new to LibGDX and any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Just define fullscreen field in your LwjglApplicationConfiguration : LwjglApplicationConfiguration cfg = new LwjglApplicationConfiguration(); cfg.title = "yourGame"; cfg.width = 1024; cfg.height = 768; cfg.fullscreen = true; new LwjglApplication(new ...(), cfg); To start your game with fullscreen mode set the following flags in LwjglApplicationConfiguration in your Desktop launcher (the main() function) public static void main(String[] args) {

If the whole "game world" is thousands of times wider than a viewport, and if I want to use scene2d to manage game objects as Actor s, should I create Stage object as wide as the whole world, or should the Stage be some area around current viewport but not the whole world? In other words, does a Stage with greater width and height consume more memory itself, even if I render objects only on a small viewport-sized part of it? I think you misunderstood what exactly a Stage is. A Stage doesn't really have a size itself. You don't specify a width or height or the Stage , you only specify the width

I'm new in Gradle. I'm trying to add gdx-tools to my project: project(":desktop") { apply plugin: "java" dependencies { compile project(":core") compile "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-backend-lwjgl:$gdxVersion" compile "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-platform:$gdxVersion:natives-desktop" compile "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-box2d-platform:$gdxVersion:natives-desktop" compile "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-tools:$gdxVersion" } } I open my Desktop project, folder "Gradle Dependecies" and see "gdx-tools-1.0.1.jar". As I try to open it - nothing shows. So, when I try to use it ( I want to try pack images to

I have an overlay in my game that consists of an image of a screen, and a set of buttons that are "on" the screen. Screenshot: My Screen has one Stage . The Stage has a set of Group objects, which I think of as layers. The first group has the backgrounds, the groups in the middle has the game elements, and the frontmost group has the screen overlay. The overlay layer consists of one Image , the screen itself, and four TextButton (one in each corner). This would work great, if it weren't for the fact that I can't click on anything in the game layer as long as the image in the overlay layer is

I'm attempting to resize a scene2d.ui window (which is basically a table that can be moved around) and its contents. So far I can only successfully change the window size itself, but not its contents. I'm doing it like this: window.setWidth(newTableWidth); textField.setWidth(newFieldWidth); window.invalidate(); <--- New size of window is drawn properly when invalidate() is called textField.invalidate(); <--- New textField size is NOT drawn, however In this case, the window contains a text field which I'm trying to resize along with the window, but only the window gets redrawn with its new size

I am trying to write a big text using BitmapFont in libGDX . But it shows on one line and the user can see only the first part of the text . How can I make that bitmapFont made new line automatically and show whole text on the screen ? noone Either use \n for manual new lines and render the font via font.drawMultiLine(...) . Or use font.drawWrapped(...) with a wrap width to let libgdx wrap it automatically (manually added \n are still supported). Update: With libGDX 1.6 the draw methods were enhanced , and there is no further need for drawMultiLine and drawWrapped, so those were removed. Draw
