Not really a newcomer but didn't know where to post this. Anyway, how can you get window width and height?

You mean return the window width and height? Or change it?

Oh, sorry, I misunderstood, I thought that's what he wanted.

Does anyone know how to stop sprites or 2d stuff from stretching or resizing when the window size is changed? Thanks in advance.

This is not good for an level editor to keep reloading all the media every time the window changes size. Is there know other way?
