Investigate how well ScratchFoot works when screen is not standard size #129

Open VictorNorman opened 8 years ago

VictorNorman commented 8 years ago

One of the limits of Scratch is the small screen area -- 480x360 -- so I can see students wanting to go to Greenfoot to get a bigger screen.

Theoretically we can call super() in ScratchWorld with params to make the screen a different size. But, does that work? If so, how well?

Perhaps we have to make screen_width and screen_height be optional params to s2g.py so that it generates code that sets up the screen to be that different width...

I haven't noticed any issues other than the fact that you have to change the size in both the world constructor and the stage backdrop initialization instead of having it centralized.

You need to resize the backdrop images, too, right?
