I'm using pygame and I've been working so far in a large monitor, but now I need to work on a small laptop, whose screen is much smaller than the mentioned monitor. The dimensions I gave to the display surface and the items blitted to it work well on the previous monitor but it is too large on the laptop and therefore I cannot reach all buttons. Since I can't seem to find a way to resize everything proportionaly, is there an easy way to add a vertical and horizontal scroll bar in order to navigate around the display surface?

Thank you

    There isn't an easy way to implement scrolling as you have to implement it all by your self (something like [this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/14357169/6486738). Scaling proportionally is also something you have to do by yourself, but that is a bit easier if listen to the resize event, and scale all your surfaces with `pygame.transform.scale` with some proportion relative to the new screen size. – Ted Klein Bergman Aug 19 '20 at 02:47

I don't think that you can add a scroll bar. What you can do is shift the x or y of everything when you press the corresponding arrow keys. But as said by Ted Klein Bergman, it is better to simply resize everything.
