AL_SET_WINDOW_CONSTRAINTS(3)

✨ al_set_window_constraints — Allegro 5 API ✨

okay bestie, so you know how windows can be resized and sometimes they get absolutely unhinged about it? 💀 this is the function that gently tells your window "hey. bestie. maybe not that small, maybe not that big." it lives in the Allegro 5 API manual, and it's giving very much "setting boundaries" energy. 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

bool al_set_window_constraints(ALLEGRO_DISPLAY *display,
   int min_w, int min_h, int max_w, int max_h)

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So basically, al_set_window_constraints constrains a non-fullscreen resizable display. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

the constraints are a hint only, and are not necessarily respected by the window environment. no cap — your window manager is the main character here and it might just ignore you. 🙈

a value of 0 for any of the parameters indicates no constraint for that parameter. so if you don't care about the max width, just slide a 0 in there and let it live. ✨

⚠️ and here's the important bit, bestie: the constraints will be applied to a display only after the al_apply_window_constraints(3) function call. like, you set them here, but nothing actually happens until you go knock on that other function's door. iykyk. 💅
