Making an image fit the screen

[Robosparks]

Hi everyone! I'm super new here, so the answer to this is most likely obvious, but...

I'm having problems with getting (Large) images to be a bit less zoomed in. It'd probably work if I used an image editor to shrink the image but is there a way to scale it in Ren'Py itself?

If anyone can post any Ren'Py methods of adjusting the size of images, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks for reading!

You can use a zoom transform in atl that applies when you show it, like:

Code: Select all

show picture:
  zoom 0.8

Or associate the atl with the image declaration so it can be reused without supplying atl whenever you show it:

Code: Select all

image picture:
  "picture.png"
  zoom 0.8

Or you can modify the image as it is loaded with im.FactorScale:

Code: Select all

image picture = im.FactorScale("picture.png", 0.8)

This is probably a better approach as it won't interfere with you using ATL zoom to modify the image when shown dynamically later, for special effects etc.

Ok, I'll try those two methods out and see what works best.

Thank you!
