Mike_da_Spike Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I thought with the latest version of PinballX that the over and underlays where not squished I'm running a 4k resolution (3840 x 2160) on my playfield. I have underlays that has the resolution 949x2160 But in PBX the underlay looks squished (not sure if that is a correct word) for example the underlay looks like : check the round part (I received this from a friend and not able to share, that's why I put some red stripes in it) but in PBX it looks like : Is this normal behavior and should I make all pictures 3840 x 2160 instead of 949x2160 ?

Mike_da_Spike Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 When changing the underlay to 3840*2160 and in PBX setting set to "Stretch underlay images" to No, it shows like this : (so definitely is stretched) (yes, it is under the text ) Setting the option : stretch underlay images to Yes, it shows correctly (only all out of balance, but thats my issue) But this is only why I create a full image (same size as playfield) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I think its working how I intended. Its just stretched to the display size. Stretch Underlay YES is the new setting. Off is how it always was.You will of course have to tweak the image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 The issue is it was always off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_da_Spike Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Ok. Understand, but if I have a picture of 3840 x 2160pixels, displayed on the same resolution, why is the image so tiny , if the stretch underlay is set to no ? I'm already in progress to modify them, and looks must better to set the stretch underlay to yes. Thanks for this update ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Set to No is just the old original support. So its only going to work with existing underlays. Its not a new feature. I cant obviously program PinballX to know what is in the image, right, So there is the existing support and support for new ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_da_Spike Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 No no. You dont miss something. Dont get me wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 The old original format has always been off as I said. Think of this more as a v1 and v2 rather than stretch/nostretch/scale. They are both stretched/shrank, I guess the name is misleading. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_da_Spike Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Yes. Name is misleading. Not sure what the old version did with the size. If it is 1:1 it is squished completly to a tiny pic. I just think that v2 is a setting the picture to 'full screen' , but as I said, not sure what v1 is doing I am terrible in defining names, sorry for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Sorry, yes, I understand you now. Ive got a new version coming in a minute. Hopefully better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_da_Spike Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Thanks Tom. Sorry for my bad English explanation. It will be tomorrow when I can check it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schreibi34 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 As long as you use an image that has the same aspect ratio as your monitor the image will be shown 1:1 in the new version! If you want to use an old image with the new mode you have to insert it into a new image with the same aspect ratio as your monitor (1080X1920 for example), position and / or stretch it the way you want it inside that image. This will enable you to fit the small wheels inside the arc or you can place a graphic under the big wheel in the center if you want. That is not possible with the old vrsion.

Mike_da_Spike Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 @Tom Speirs I see you changed the text in settings. Make more sense for me. Now I can modify correct sized (and round) underlays that looks how they where designed ! Thanks Tom again for all your work on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
