Feature request: overlays - no need to use specific resolutions

Post by noobychris »

Hello dear hudiy team,
is there any chance to not set a specific resolution in the overlays.json and gather the actual resolution or available space for ther overlay?
This would be more flexible i guess. If i change the resolution, the content just use the space i gave him with the resolution parameters.
Or i might want to share my overlays to other users :-)

{
"identifier" : "gauges",
"action" : "",
"width" : 800,
"height" : 480,
"x" : 0,
"y" : 0,
"visibility" : "NATIVE_UI_ONLY",
"url" : "http://127.0.0.1:44408/gauges.html",
"controlAudioFocus" : false,
"audioStreamCategory" : "NONE",
"visibleOnActions" : [
"gauges_app"
],
"staticPosition" : true
},

Hello,
Yes, this will be part of the feature with relative overlay coordinates. It will also be possible to set the relative size of the overlay.

We have an ongoing overlay rework which includes the mentioned features + multiple instances of built-in overlays and mirroring of Android Auto and CarPlay projection (unlocked by the latest direct renderer delivery).
