Inconsistent dimensions

zeroyd

Hello fastreport developers,

could you improve dimensions please?

Example for PaperWidth:
- in designer is 42
- in script editor is 420

Example for Left in Memo:
- in designer is 2,70
- in FR3 file is 102,04724409

etc.

It is not normal !!!

Objects??? coordinates and sizes are set in pixels, page dimensions - in mm. Since the ?«Left,?» ?«Top,?» ?«Width,?»
and ?«Height?» properties of all objects have the ?«Extended?» type, you can point out
non-integer values. The following constants are defined for converting pixels into
centimeters and inches:
fr01cm = 3.77953;
fr1cm = 37.7953;
fr01in = 9.6;
fr1in = 96;
For example, a band???s height equal to 5 mm can be set as follows:
Band.Height := fr01cm * 5;
Band.Height := fr1cm * 0.5;

Its depend on your designer settings (in, mm, px)

Have a look at frxClass.pas ...

const
  fr01cm: Extended = 3.77953;
  fr1cm: Extended = 37.7953;
  fr01in: Extended = 9.6;
  fr1in: Integer = 96;

... and you find over there factors like above that help to convert pixels into cm/inch an vice versa.

Hi Gpi

You were faster while answering :-)
