I'm currently working on developing a website layout in React that consists of:
- A top bar
- A right side bar
- A canvas element that occupies the remainder of the screen space
These elements need to adjust to the browser window size changes while filling the page's width and height precisely.
Initially, I utilized flexbox to achieve this layout, but encountered an issue with the canvas content appearing extremely blurry.
To address this blurriness, I set the canvas resolution to its dimensions within a useEffect callback like so:
canvas.width = canvas.offsetWidth;
canvas.height = canvas.offsetHeight;
However, this solution caused the canvas to stop responding to page resizing - specifically, the canvas aspect ratio no longer adjusted based on the page dimensions, resulting in no changes when the page size decreased or increased.
I've created two examples to demonstrate this problem:
- This example on CodeSandbox features clear canvas content due to setting the canvas resolution, but does not respond to page resizing.
- On the other hand, this example on CodeSandbox adjusts to page resizing, yet suffers from blurry canvas content.
Would you happen to have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue? While I have come across similar inquiries, none of the solutions presented have proven to be effective in practice.
