"Raze style" hud scale in g4.8.0 has weird status bar bug.

Post by KynikossDragonn »

Not sure if this was reported or not...

If you set "hud_oldscale" to false this ends up happening:




It works just fine with the HUD enabled and does scale like I would expect it to scale a HUD.

The viewport also seems to be shifted slightly up when this scaling mode is enabled with status bars, like it's assuming you're only using the HUD not a status bar.

Do people still use the viewborder mode? I have to admit I only tested it in fullscreen.

I don't use the viewborder but I included it as a example because a single 1px of the viewborder is showing just above the status bar, so I had a hunch something weird would happen if I reduce the view size and sure enough something weird did happen!

I rather like having the view border as an option, and I honestly don't see any reason why it would be such a hassle to keep it around. I don't use it much, but I would miss it if it were gone.

Is there a way to reimplement it?

It looks like the code expects the status bar to be one pixel taller.

I hope it's also not due to me running in 1280x1024 (5:4), normally I run in 1024x768 but I've been starting to get things configured to run at 1280x1024 so it fills more of the area in my 1920x1080 scene setup in OBS.

I am of the opinion that the viewborder thing should have died in the 90's, but that's just my opinion... :mrgreen:

I know there's be at least one person out of 7 billion people who will go critical mass if this weird archaic viewborder feature is removed.

I just want to clarify, I don't use the viewborder. The primary thing I was reporting was that single 1px wide line going across a screen just above the status bar, that seems to be made of the viewborder texture.

I went into viewborder mode just to see if it would break harder and it did, so I dunno' what's actually happening here. There shouldn't even be a single trace of the viewborder when using the statusbar at the normal "full screen" view.

I cannot reproduce it with the current master. Let's hope it got fixed.
