This is a list of all the variables that are used by the Virtual Arsenal.
Creating dialogs makes understanding the way Arma 3 handles the screen coordinates mandatory. This page is supposed to give an overview and explanation of this topic.
==Considerations==
There are three important things to keep in mind:
===1) Keeping the dialog on screen===
For this purpose the safeZone grid was introduced. Here is a quick rundown of all six commands:

|}


===2) Considering different settings===
|}
These are the settings that can be changed and will influence your dialog:
* Screen resolution and aspect ratio: 1920x1080 (16:9), 1366x768 (16:9), 1024x768 (4:3), etc.)
* UI scale: Ranges from Very Small to Very Large
* Triple Head setups
 
For this purpose the GUI_GRID was introduced. It's purpose is to keep a uniform style on all dialogs and is the grid system used across nearly all Arma 3 dialogs.
