A Windom of dimension 280 x 445 in dlangui is the same as a 
Windom of 350 x 550 in Javafx and adobe air.


What could be responsible for this wide difference?
A window of 350 x 550 in adobe air is the same as a window of 
350 x 550 in javafx. So why is dlangui window bigger?


Note that I  am using  w x h for my window dimension and I am 
on windows 10


That looks like DPI scaling is in effect: 280 pixels + 125% DPI = 
350.


There's an example of how to get the screen size here (look for 
getScreenDimensions):

Without going into depth I have tested this under Linux/GTK 
with dlangui:


WindowState state;
Rectrect;
rect.left   = 800;
rect.top= 10;
rect.bottom = 600;
rect.right  = 1000;
bool bRet= window.setWindowState(state,
 false,
 rect);

window.show();

This changed the position and size of my initial window.

This help a little but not what I am looking for.
I want to calculate the width and window of the screen so as 
to center my window on screen


I also notice that a window of 350 x 550 appear bigger compare 
to the same Widow dimension in Havana and adobe air.


Why is it so?

Plz help!  Thanks in advance


To center horizontal:

l = left
s = screen width
w = window width

l = (s / 2) - (w / 2)

To center vertical:

t = top
s = screen height
h = window height

t = (s / 2) - (h / 2)

And about the window size.

It has probably to do with the type of Window you're rendering, 
like whether it has borders or not. Borders are not calculated 
in the width / height, so they take up extra space. Adobe 
usually never uses the native GUI for borders etc. so the 
border size (if there is one) is included in their width / 
height.
