I’m trying to retrieve data which will tell me the position of an object after i have moved it on the screen. I have managed to get specific pixel coordinates however I can’t seem to figure how i can retrieve the value of the coordinates in a resolution independent way.
To be clear I would like to print the coordinates which will tell me the values in a way that is shown below instead of the regular pixel specific way
1 2 | image.x = _W * 0.68; image.y =_H * 0.4 |
You could take the pixel coordinates and divide them by the height or width of the screen such as:
1 2 3 4 | local imageX = _W/image.x local imageY = _H/image.y print(imageX, imageY) |
Thanks just figured it out myself and was about to reply. Obvious really!
