Declaration

Source position: forms.pp line 201

public function TScrollingWinControl.ClientToScreen(

  const APoint: TPoint

):TPoint; override;

Arguments

APoint

  

TPoint instance with the client-relative coordinates converted in the method.

Function result

TPoint instance with the screen coordinates for the specified value.

Description

ClientToScreen is an overridden method in TScrollingWinControl.

ClientToScreen calls the inherited method to get the TPoint instance with the screen coordinates for the client coordinates in APoint. The X and Y members in the return value are updated to reflect the current scroll offsets for the control. This gives the screen coordinates where the origin for the logical display area is located on the control.

ClientToScreen is used, along with ScreenToClient, in inherited methods which respond to changes in the mouse pointer position for a control. This includes context menu display and drag-and-dock operations.
