Hi Brushmen,

Thanks for the feature request! This app does not function using Electron, but it would certainly be possible to implement this type of customisation of zoom/resolution. For all other people reading this comment - the app window created is currently manually resizable by dragging the corners and the user can use standard control+scroll to zoom in and out. Implementing customised default scaling is a feature I will implement in the next update  

I haven’t tested closing the app with JavaScript - but since it’s not an electron window, you would treat it like any webpage. Thank you for requesting this feature, I will look into it to implementing it on the next major update (hopefully in a month’s time). 

Thank you again,

Rerun.

Thanks for your reply.

Oh, so it’s just using Python libraries to embed a Chromium browser? I know it’s likely a Chromium inside since when I playtest, the end result only matches what looks in Chrome and not in Firefox, though the default zoom is still different after weaved. (I know I can zoom in with Ctrl +, but I figured if I can make the user not need to do that at start that’d be nice quality-of-life)

If I am to treat it like any browser, then Javascript as I understand now will not be able to close the window. :(

Yes exactly, it’s opening a chromium browser. I believe I can embed an API inside the PyQtWebEngine code to add this functionality, but you’d need to manually edit the HTML with some Pythonic API calls. 

The Python code for this project I have published as open source, found below. It sounds like you are technically minded, so maybe it would help you to take a look? 

Inside the python code is a large block of text as a variable. This block is what is run to boot the HTML file - the code around it runs as a wrapper to install this “python file as a variable” along with your html file and assets. 

I hope this is helpful!

Once my uni exams are over in late Jan, I will work on the update and add the suggested functionality.

Oh  - you can also manually set the geometry and zoom if you’re editing the code :)
