Has anyone worked out a way to do this? I have a control inside a
ContainerControl. That ContainerControl could be placed in another
control or a window. I need a generic way to work up the 'tree' to get
the global coordinates.
Here's the function I wrote:
Function UltimateLeft(extends container as ContainerControl) As integer
dim result as integer = container.left
// sum the left positions of all parents
while container.window isa ContainerControl
container = ContainerControl( container.window )
result = result + container.left
wend
return result
End Function
Do the same for top.
