Linux standalone player detects 2 screens as one

· When having a 5:4 and a 21:9 screen connected, I'm getting a "32:9" aspect ratio when checking the main screen
· When having a 16:9 and a 21:9 screen connected, I'm getting "112:27" aspect ratio when checking the main screen

Doing some quick maths, (16+21,33)*3 is 112, and transforming 5:4 into a :9 resolution as well makes about 32 when added to 21. Therefore, I think Linux simply adds the two screens together when giving you back the aspect ratio, making nonsense results.

Is there anything that can be done about this? As usual, I've filed a bug report, just in case:

I guess it's basically this issue:

How are you querying the aspect ratio?
If you're just doing math based on Screen.currentResolution, it should be noted that this reports the combined desktop resolution on Linux (since that's what the OS reports to us).
(I also said that on the other thread.)

 

Yeah, I use that. Let me show you what I do:

Code (CSharp):

1. Vector2 currentAR = GetAspectRatio (Screen.currentResolution.width, Screen.currentResolution.height);
2.  
3. Vector2 GetAspectRatio(int x, int y){
4.     float xf = x;
5.     float yf = y;
6.     float f = xf / yf;
7.     int i = 0;
8.  
9.     while(true){
10.         i++;
11.         if(System.Math.Round(f * i, 2) == Mathf.RoundToInt(f * i))
12.             break;
13.     }
14.  
15.     return new Vector2((int)System.Math.Round(f * i, 2), i);
16. }
17.  
18. //Then I do
19. if(currentAR == new Vector2(16, 9)){ //16:9 monitors
20.    //blah blah
21. } else {
22.    //blah blah
23. }

I have to check the current screen's resolution in order to apply certain changes to UIs and other things, but since I keep getting both screens combined (it's worst when each screen has a different AR e.g. one being 16:9 and the other 16:10) I cannot perform the proper actions.

What would be the best approach for this (although I know this is more of a general code question)?

 

Just use Screen.width and Screen.height.

 

Oh wow, that was indeed an easy change. Thanks a lot.

Does the "Capture Single Screen" property also fix things for this? I have it unchecked.

 

I believe this only affects Windows exclusive mode fullscreen.
