Enable YAFC window to shrink to half the monitor width, Windows

[CricketBr]

The large screen is great for playing with recipe chains, but it's so wide that there isn't much room for the game. I'm making do with a screenshot for now, but miss being able to move lines around as I finish them.

Can you provide some more details about your setup, like OS, size of your screen(s), etc. so we can have a better idea what is going on and figure out what we can do about it?

My main screen is 1920x1080.

When I use windows-arrow to make each screen half-width, I get thisL

YAFC cannot be made narrower.

Thank you so much for the quick update to 2.0! It's a big help when I wonder how much room to leave.

There is (since ages) a minimum width for YAFC(-CE) defined.

yafc-ce/Yafc.UI/Core/WindowMain.cs

Lines 17 to 20 in 09fbe40

	// Min width/height define the minimum size of the main window when it gets resized.
	// The minimal size prevents issues/unreachable spots within the UI (like dialogs that do not size with the window size).
	int minWidth = MathUtils.Round(85f * pixelsPerUnit);
	int minHeight = MathUtils.Round(60f * pixelsPerUnit);

We could consider whether we can narrow it down to ~960 (half of 1920) without raising issues with the GUI. As one can see from the code, the actual pixelsPerUnit depends of display settings, so adjusting this (properly) might not be very straightforward...?

I hadn't thought about dialogs inside the window, if the window's too small.

Is the window measured by outer frame or by content? If by content, it needs to be a bit smaller than half, to avoid flickering when changing focus.

Turning into a setting, similar to dark mode might work. If a dialog window doesn't fit, the user would know why. Does esc work on all dialogs, in case the cancel button is hidden? That might be more work than it's worth.

I'll be happy to beta test whatever you do to solve the problem. In the meantime, I'll make do.

Thanks again! YAFC makes the factory much easier.
