In VB2005 I use a rectangle (50,50,910,600) into which to display my
graphics.
After graphing my X-Y data I want to do some measurements on that curve
using a crosshair cursor.
So I a made a MouseDoubleClic k event with the following code:
Dim position as Point
position=Contro l.MousePostion
tijd=position.X
height=position .Y
Now it seems that the height is in screencoordinat es, not in
graphicscoordin ates, e.g. if I doubleclick on the topline of my rectangle I
get height=76 pixels, instead of 50 pixels (the difference of 26 pixels is
the height of the forms titelbar). This difference of course becomes larger
with a form that is not maximized.
Now I can live with that by always using a maximized screen and substracting
26 from the position.Y, but that does not seems not very elegant.
Is there a better way to get the coordinates in a graphics window in
graphicscoordin ates?

Thank you Larry, you solved my problem!
As an afterthought, I find, as a newbie, that it is rather difficult to get
a grasp of the possibilities of using graphics in VB2005.
I read the Michael Halvorson Step by Step book and watched the Microsoft
online video's.
After this I have some knowledge about VB-programming, but I still know nil
about graphics, apart from drawing a line or a rectangle.
Befor I asked my question I looked into the Help-index of VB but really
could not find the answer that you gave me.
Can you point me to a (not to advanced :-) ) book or online material on
VB-graphics?
Thanks again,
Jaap

I have an image of a circle, which I am trying to straighten out into a

My question is, how do I determine how many pixels wide I should read,
in order not to miss anything out? IE: If I rotate it 1...
