safeZoneX
Return Value:
Number

Examples

Example 1:
_screenLeftBorderX = safeZoneX; // returns a float value < 0
Example 2:
Create control 50% wide, 30% tall, centered on screen:
private _ctrl = findDisplay 46 createDisplay "RscDisplayEmpty" ctrlCreate ["RscText", -1]; _ctrl ctrlSetBackgroundColor [1,0,0,0.5]; private _ctrlWidth = 0.5 * safeZoneW; // 50% of screen width private _ctrlHeight = 0.3 * safeZoneH; // 30% of screen height _ctrl ctrlSetPositionW _ctrlWidth; _ctrl ctrlSetPositionH _ctrlHeight; _ctrl ctrlSetPositionX ((safeZoneW - _ctrlWidth) / 2 + safeZoneX); // center it horizontally _ctrl ctrlSetPositionY ((safeZoneH - _ctrlHeight) / 2 + safeZoneY); // center it vertically _ctrl ctrlCommit 0;
