Preset resolutions

If there’s some default resolutions for mobiles and desktop in game and software industry, it would handy if there would be selectable preset resolutions in “Project properties”-window. Like it’s in graphic softwares.

When I open GIMP, there are no selectable preset resolutions, so if you have specific software in mind, give the name or share a screenshot. :slightly_smiling_face:
I prefer to be able to write my own resolution instead of choosing from a limited list.

Example on Krita, there’s templates and prefined document resolutions.
Yes, of course there should be option to make any size what needed. And why not also possibility to edit list and add & remove prefined templates.
Just came to my mind, when I don’t know really what are good resolutions and if there’s some good choices already. Like Android/IOs/PC ect.
I noticed, when creating new image in GIMP, there’s also some templates.

I like the template system, maybe we should have a similar window for it before create a new project from scratch.

For PC, I would say about a dozen standard resolutions, for iOS, quite a few too:


And for Android… way too many to list them, I guess. :sweat_smile:

We could try to guide users according to the game type they want (desktop, webpage, mobile portrait, sidescroller, 8bit, etc).

Thank you guys, those helps.
How about still that, if there’s no presets by Gdevelop, but possibility to user save own presets. When creating new project, project properties opens then and there would be chance to select saved presets, what user maybe uses often. So wouldn’t have always change the default settings?
