B4J Question PerXToCurrent, PerYToCurrent - Can we have it?

[wonder]

Erel,

Would it be possible to have B4J recognizing the code in the given example?

dim PosX = 34%x as double
dim PosY = 50%y as double

I'm trying to port some B4A stuff and I was wondering if you could have 34%x in B4J to be the equivalent of (34 / 100) * MainForm.Width?

Is it possible for you to implement this?

%x and %y don't really fit in B4J code. They are supported in the designer script.

In B4A there is always a single, non-resizable visible activity. In B4J there could be many forms at the same time. So %100x can mean many different values.

Even so, if I want it for personal use only, could I include such functions myself, maybe through a lib?

No. It it not possible to add it with with an external library.
