Problem description:
End goal of this will be to re-position screen objects on re-size of the window by way of calculating the % position of the object on the screen.
F Ex: I have a 10x10 view, and my health hud resides at 1,8, then the x% is 10% while the y% is 80%.
This set of code will grab the new maximized window size, convert it into %age, then "reset" the screen objects to the percent they should be at.
//F Ex 2:
860 = 8.6 pixels =1%, 86 px = 10%
And if needed apply scaling (but that's pretty simple to implement thus saving it for last)
This method is for games where a uniform view among all players isn't necessary.But it could also be used for stretch to sh*t--err fit, games as well.
If anyone would like to modify the MouseDrag so that you can drag objs around the screen without a ton of trouble(or at all), I say go for it.
Edit:
Also, I'm not looking for alternative links on how to solve this problem, I've already seen most of them, they just seem needlessly complex--I'm simply interested in examples on how this can be used to mousedrag screen objects.
If you like or want to use the above code, feel free as well.
