Texture aspect ratio

[noone]

I'm creating a sprite with random width and height but when I load the texture it stretch and not keeping the aspect ratio, see it here.

How can i fill a sprite with the texture but keep the aspect ratio?

pixijs doesnt have any resizing options to preserve aspect ratio. Usual stuff, after you load texture, just take "min(scale.x, scale.y)" and assign it to object scale.

Thanks for the reply ivan. Do you mind writing a code snippet on how do i got about it?

No, because I think that you'll have problems even if I do bigger snippet. Those are the basics of pixi transforms. or flash transforms. or other 2d renderers.

Make a minimal demo on jsfiddle, pixi-playground or codepen - i edit it and fix it if you do it wrong )

Here you go:

As you refresh you'll see it get stretch.

in 4.4.5 you had to do something like that use use pixi loader. in v5 you can do the following to wait for it to load: https://www.pixiplayground.com/#/edit/9z1BH9bfLlwwX4DGcn_N0

thank you! this is very helpful is there a way to scale the texture to fill the sprite with the texture but keep the aspect ratio?

[ivan.popelyshev]

well, you have to cut it, you can use "new PIXI.Texture(oldTexture, new PIXI.Rectangle(x,y,w,h))" where x,y,w,h are obtained through mathematics based on scale stuff ) and scale the sprite anyway
