resizeWindow()

Resizes the canvas to a given width and height.

resizeWindow() immediately clears the canvas and calls redraw().

The two parameters, width and height, set the dimensions of the resized window. They are also the values of the width and height system variables. For example, calling resizeWindow(300, 500) resizes the window to 300×500 pixels, then sets width to 300 and height 500.

Examples

resizeWindow example 1

function setup()
  windowTitle("resizeWindow example")
  text("Welcome",width/2,height/2)
  textAlign(CENTER)

  describe('A default sized gray canvas with text "Welcome" at its center. When clicked to resize the text changes to say "Resized".')
end

function mousePressed()
  resizeWindow(200,200)
end

-- Called when window resized
function windowResized()
  text("Resized",width/2,height/2)
end
