Which class in dlangui is use to obtain the screen height and
width?
A Windom of dimension 280 x 445 in dlangui is the same as a
Windom of 350 x 550 in Javafx and adobe air.
What could be responsible for this wide difference?
A window of 350 x 550 in adobe air is the same as a window of 350
x 550 in javafx. So why is dlangui window bigger?
Note that I am using w x h for my window dimension and I am on
windows 10
