Question

Hello everyone, I’m having trouble with having the game I’m developing for Web support Portrait mode in case the game is played on a mobile device.

The game does indeed change orientation, but all it does is rotate the viewport, and what I need is to change the UI layout and viewport size when Godot detects a change in device rotation. I’m not able to effectively detect a change in rotation with a HTML export as you would with an Android/iOS export, and all the multiple aspect ratio advice is oriented to mobile without Web and doesn’t seem to work on a Web export.

I’d appreciate advice, sorry if I’m missing out on anything obvious.

The signal get_window().size_changed still detects the inner HTML window size so you can use that to change the screen size and the aspect.

Edit: Unfortunately while I can detect window changes, I seem to be unable to change the viewport’s size and I have a 1920x1080 screen that sits in the middle of the screen. I seem to be unable to change this size.
