I have a code that used to run fine on python2. This code is a cefpython browser very similar to wxpython example located on git repository of cefpython. Now i moved to python3 and I am facing display bugs like the one of this picture:
The code regarding dpi is the following:
def main():
...
if WINDOWS:
# noinspection PyUnresolvedReferences, PyArgumentList
cef.DpiAware.EnableHighDpiSupport()
cef.Initialize(settings=settings)
class MainFrame(wx.Frame):
def __init__(self):
wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent=None, id=wx.ID_ANY,
title='', size=(WIDTH, HEIGHT))
self.browser = None
...
global g_count_windows
g_count_windows += 1
if WINDOWS:
# noinspection PyUnresolvedReferences, PyArgumentList
print("[wxpython.py] System DPI settings: %s"
% str(cef.DpiAware.GetSystemDpi()))
if hasattr(wx, "GetDisplayPPI"):
print("[wxpython.py] wx.GetDisplayPPI = %s" % wx.GetDisplayPPI())
print("[wxpython.py] wx.GetDisplaySize = %s" % wx.GetDisplaySize())
print("[wxpython.py] MainFrame declared size: %s"
% str((WIDTH, HEIGHT)))
size = scale_window_size_for_high_dpi(WIDTH, HEIGHT)
print("[wxpython.py] MainFrame DPI scaled size: %s" % str(size))
wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent=None, id=wx.ID_ANY,
title='wxPython example', size=size)
print("[wxpython.py] MainFrame actual size: %s" % self.GetSize())
And the output prints related to dpi and versions are:
[wxpython.py] CEF Python 66.0
[wxpython.py] Python 3.7.3 32bit
[wxpython.py] wxPython 4.0.6 msw (phoenix) wxWidgets 3.0.5
[wxpython.py] System DPI settings: (120, 120)
[wxpython.py] wx.GetDisplayPPI = (157, 158)
[wxpython.py] wx.GetDisplaySize = (1920, 1080)
[wxpython.py] MainFrame declared size: (800, 600)
[wxpython.py] MainFrame DPI scaled size: (1000, 750)
How can I run this example on python3?
Thank you for any further help. Ricardo
The solution to my problem was pointed by Czarek Tomczak on a comment to my question: https://github.com/cztomczak/cefpython/issues/530#issuecomment-505066492
Adding the parameter {'disable-gpu': ''} to the switches solved my problem.
cef.Initialize(settings={}, switches={'disable-gpu': ""})
On the thread available on the link, it says that this is not the right solution. It worked for me, and I am not having problems until now. But if anyone knows another solution I can try it.
