Getting the new window size when receiving `NCKEY_RESIZE` #2750

Open mulle-nat opened 5 months ago

mulle-nat commented 5 months ago

So I do a notcurses_get and I get a NCKEY_RESIZE back. I naively assumed that I could ask notcurses_term_dim_yx for the new dimensions. Alas these give me the old dimensions. Looking through the code, there is a "updateterm.." function, which I could call. That probably does what I want, but since this is not "official" API, I wonder if I am not walking in a pitfall here. I don't want to render anything at this point.

Ideally of course the new size would be part of ncinput, so I don't have to do this :wink:

hrmmm, i believe notcurses_term_dim_yx() following receipt of the NCKEY_RESIZE ought indeed return the new size. if it's not, that's almost certainly a bug. with that said, resizing is not the cleanest code in notcurses.

you ought not need call anything else. i'll look into this, thanks.
