firstly please keep in mind that I am way behind in my posts currently so just
came on this one, ok?
now then in general, how does one determine the general width and height of
your screen, does it relate to the resolution, or the form, or what would one
use as a standard for determine such measurements?
and if you would, in pixels, I am so used to characters that I really need to
start getting measurements in pixels for my eventual jump to the .net IDE.
thanks,
inthane

hello,
You need to consider half way in terms of your window size.
So, if your window is 500x500, then half way would be 250.

Subject: VB.net forms, how far is too far?
Working on some vb.net assignments for school, using visual studio 2008.
I've figured out how to place controls on the form using the jaws scripts and
it works wonderfully, but I'm having a bit of trouble visualizing my layout.
Basically, I'm not quite sure based on the numbers just how far over on my
screen the control really is. If a control has its left edge at 300, is that
halfway across? a fourth of the way? way the heck off the screen? I've noticed
that once a control gets to a certain point and you add a new control, VS puts
it back at 0,0 instead of to the right and down from where you were, but not
sure if that really means anything. Any experienced VS users who could give me
a bit of help conceptualizing this would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
Christy
