Hey forum =)
i got a question about the "picture-information"-window.
i open the window in the statusbar with "view"--> "picture information" and then he needed windows pops up on the right side. so far so good.
but now i want to have the exact position of the curser in Pixel, if i point on a specivic location of the picture, that´s why i changed the unit from "zoll" to "pixel".
the problem is now, that the "picture-information"-window does´nt show me all pixels, it just adds a pixel, when i point about 10 pixels further in my picture.
for example i got a picture with x = 5184 pixels, y = 3456 pixels, but the maximum pixel on the x-axis shown on "picture-information" is 5.18 and on the y-axis 3.45.
so it seems it only counts every 10th pixel.
i tried to fix it in the options settings, but didn´t succeed =(
i would be vary happy if someboy could help me!
sorry for my bad english! best wishes, tmae
I think you need to select pixels using the second dropdown:
That seems to be showing "whole" pixels here (my cursor is near the right of a 1750 pixel wide image).
thx for ur answer, but i already picked "pixel" in that dropdown menue. and i only get the pixels number divided through 10
It is actually 5184 divided by 1000, not divided by 10 ... and that gives me a clue.
In some countries, the dot means thousand and a comma is used for the decimal point. It looks like the two are being confused here.
So, the first thing to do is to check whether your Regional settings are correct at the windows level.
If you are on XP that will be control panel > Regional and Language Options. Go into Customise and check whether Decimal Symbol and Digital Grouping Symbol are set correctly for your country.
If you are on Windows 7, it will be Control Panel > Clock, Language, and Region > Region and Language and those options will be under Additional Settings.
If you need to change these settings you will probably need to restart CorelDraw because it probably only looks for them at startup.
thx for ur answer again. i got win 7 and i checked it, like your advice. but it was already correct. hmmm i don´t know how i can fix that issue =( any other ideas?
okay, i got an answer for my problem:
the picture-info screen only shows every 10th pixel if you got a definition higher then 1000 pixel.
for example
533 pixel = 0,533
1212 pixel = 1,12
nothing you can do about it =(
anyway, thanks for your help!
