nX is int = CoordinateScreenToEditor(MyInputControl.X)
nY is int = CoordinateScreenToEditor(MyInputControl.Y)
nWidth is int = CoordinateScreenToEditor(MyInputControl.Width)
nHeight is int = CoordinateScreenToEditor(MyInputControl.Height)

<Result>: Integer
Conversion result: size or position converted into the reference dpi in the editor (160 dpi).
WEBDEV - Server code This parameter always corresponds to <Value>.
<Value>: Integer

Remarks
  • WINDEV Mobile In the editor, the sizes and positions of the controls in Android, iPhone or Universal Windows 10 App windows always correspond to a 160 dpi screen (dot per inch).
  • Universal Windows 10 AppAndroidAndroid Widget iPhone/iPad When running the application, these sizes and positions are automatically converted according to the native dpi of the screen on the host device. This allows you to get a WYSIWYG rendering regardless of the device dpi. For example, if the size of a control is equal to 100x100 in the editor, its size at run time will be set to 150x150 on a device in 240 dpi, to 200x200 on a device in 320 dpi, etc.
  • CoordinateEditorToScreen allows making the inverted conversion, i.e., from the reference dpi in the editor (160 dpi) to the native dpi of the device on which the application is run.
