macOS default drawing size width is huge

[ijean]

Hello,

I'm using macOS Catalina, Rust 1.43.1 and turtle 1.0.0-rc.3 with a MacBook Air 2018 (retina display). I think something is wrong with the way the turtle window is created because the default width of the window is huge. Here is a sample program that I've tried:

use turtle::Turtle;

fn main() {
    let mut turtle = Turtle::new();

    turtle.forward(100.0);

    let size = turtle.drawing().size();
    println!("size: {} {}", size.width, size.height);
}

The above claims that the window size is 200000 by 1710 pixels, obviously the line drawn is not visible.

If I force the window to have a specific size nothing seems to change:

turtle.drawing_mut().set_size((400, 500));

Regards, Jean

Hi Jean, Thanks for reporting this. If you clone the master branch of the repo and run the following command, does the same issue still occur?

cargo run --example circle

This example should draw a full circle on the screen. If the window isn't too big, please try to take a screenshot of what's happening. Thanks!

Thanks for your quick feedback, seems to work if I use the master:

It seems the problem is present when I use in my Cargo.toml file:

turtle = "1.0.0-rc.3"

I assume the problem will go away once you release 1.0.0-rc.4

Hi Jean, I think this is similar to other issues that have been reported recently. There seems to be a dependency update that was done on master but hasn't been released yet. You can still use the crate by changing the dependency in your Cargo.toml to be as followed:

turtle = {git = "https://github.com/sunjay/turtle"}

Please let me know if this resolves things for you.

Thanks, this solved the problem for me! Suggestion - add the above to the documentation because most novices, like me, will be stuck when using the current 1.0.0.-rc.3.

Glad you got it working!

Hello,

I'm still having these same problems, even after using the git version. After I try to compile, it says:

error[E0432]: unresolved import `futures_core::core_reexport`
  --> /Users/rick/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/futures-util-0.3.6/src/lib.rs:55:9

For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0432`.
error: could not compile `futures-util`.

The examples from the Github repo work otherwise. Any ideas what this could be or how can I remedy it?

Hi @Rickgg. Sorry to hear you're having trouble. Can you try the solution from this comment: https://github.com/sunjay/turtle/issues/202#issuecomment-695811144

This issue is quite old, so the solution I suggested above is outdated. Instead of using the git master branch, try selecting the specific revision I outline in that comment.

If you're still running into problems after that, please open a new issue and provide information like your rust version, your Cargo.lock file, and your operating system information.

Hope that solves the problem for you!
