GadgetX ( gadget )
Parameters
| gadget - gadget to read the position of |
Description
|
Returns a gadget's x position. Requires Extended language mode. Reads the left edge of the gadget in logical 96-DPI units, relative to the client area of its group - the same value you passed at creation or with SetGadgetShape, kept current by any SetGadgetLayout rules that have moved it since. For a window, x is a desktop coordinate instead. Together with GadgetY, GadgetWidth and GadgetHeight it gives you a gadget's full geometry - the inputs for manual layout: placing one gadget just right of another, or saving a window's position to restore next run. Because the value is logical, it matches on every monitor; the GUI handles per-monitor DPI scaling underneath. The world editor shell sample shows the layout work these getters support.
