Single Screen View Option and Toggle Screen Button #3

Closed Awakened0 closed 10 years ago

Awakened0 commented 10 years ago

In stand-alone Desmume there is an option to display only a single screen and assign a button to toggle between them. It works well for many games where the second screen only displays a map or other information you only need to glance at from time to time. The toggle screen button could be assigned to L2 on the retropad for easy access since it's not used for anything currently.

I'm not sure if it's worth a separate issue report, but having an option to max out one window and move the other one into a corner (keeping both aspect ratios) would be a good addition so you can have the main screen in fullscreen and the second one (usually a map) in a small corner.

That would be a good use of the black bar area. I'm not sure how filters would work with it though. You'd probably want the small secondary screen unfiltered.

I'm gonna be looking into this now, if it's just desmume options I might be able to accomplish this

It's been addressed https://github.com/libretro/desmume/commit/20684a5d53a9065ac03c39d9a578d0af392b7c1d Please test it and let me know if anything is broken

Thanks, it works really well! The only small thing off is if you start RetroArch with the screen layout in quick swap or top or bottom screen only, if you try to switch to top+bottom or bottom+top you get a black screen until you switch it back to quick swap or top or bottom screen only, or restart RetroArch. If you start in top+bottom or bottom+top mode you can switch to any of the single screen modes without a problem.

wow that's weird and yeah I was able to reproduce.. I'm confused but I'll look into it.

I guess I'm not initializing something correctly

andres-asm commented 10 years ago

I fixed it, doing some extra stuff so I'll commit this later

andres-asm commented 10 years ago
