📷 Resizable Camera – Version 2.0

Version 2.0 of Resizable Camera introduces improved resizing behavior and several new customization options.

You can now drag and resize the camera bar using a handle located at the center of the bar. The handle always remains centered, regardless of where the bar is positioned on the screen.

🔧 Resize Behavior

To prevent resizing issues that could make the camera bar excessively large or small:

• The size is capped by the max-width and max-height values defined in the module settings.
• Limits depend on vertical or horizontal position.
• The bar will never be smaller than 40px, preventing it from disappearing.

All dragged sizes are saved in memory.

• Settings are stored per client.
• Settings are stored per bar position.
• Thanks to dineshm72 for requesting this feature.

💬 Chat Behavior Adjustment

Chat buttons will now wrap below the chat input field when the right bar is collapsed.

This change was made for accessibility and ease of use.

⚙ Configuration

All settings include default values.

You can:

1. Install the module.
2. Activate it in your world.
3. Start using it immediately.

A new icon in the camera bar provides quick access to module settings.

🆕 New Options in Version 2.0

All new options are set to Foundry’s default behavior or the simplest configuration by default to prevent unexpected behavior.

🎥 Camera Aspect Ratio

Some video platforms support widescreen or alternative aspect ratios.

These are now configurable in the settings.

Important:

• Proper display depends on the transmitted video feed using the correct ratio.
• Selecting the wrong ratio may cause cropping.

👁 Hide Cameras Without Video

This was the most complex feature implemented so far.

Default Foundry Behavior

When a user is connected but not transmitting video, their camera frame remains visible.

New Behavior

This feature automatically:

• Detects whether a user is transmitting video.
• Hides their camera if they are not.
• Restores the camera automatically if transmission resumes.

A (!) icon appears when one or more cameras are hidden.

Hover over it to see how many are currently hidden.

Important Notes

• Your own camera will also be hidden if you are not transmitting.
• You can control transmission using camera bar settings.
• You can disable this behavior in module settings.
• When using this feature for the first time, verify that no one is unintentionally hidden.
• Thanks to Bruno Calado  (https://foundryvtt.com/community/brunocalado/packages)  for the help solving some unwanted behavior in the hide camera feature!

🧲 Handle Always Visible

🎨 Color

Changes the color of:

• Icons
• Resize handle

🌫 Opacity

🔄 Reload Pop-up

Most features do not require a reload when settings change.

However, some options do.

When changing settings:

• A small pop-up will ask whether you want to refresh.
• It will attempt to inform you if reload is required.

If your new settings do not appear to apply:

• Refresh the page.
• Otherwise cancel if unnecessary.

🛠 Small (and Slightly Embarrassing) Tip

On rare occasions, the camera frame may disappear or freeze.

The exact cause has not been identified and the issue is uncommon.

If it happens:

1. Change the bar position.
2. Or refresh the page.
3. Then switch back to your preferred position.

This has consistently resolved the issue.
