[Mono-winforms-list] Winforms: Position and Size of Buttons etc.

[Harald Friedrich]

Hi Pavel,

thanks for your answer. But how do I set the DPI (dot-per-inch) value?
Windows normally is pixel oriented. That means if I set a buttons left|top
to 10|10, then it is exactly positioned at pixel 10|10. A DPI value in
Windows for the screen is unknown to me. Is Mono/Linux different?

As you can see, unfortunately I'm coming from the Windows world and am
exploring the Linux universe ;-)

Thanks for any comment.

Best regards, Harald Friedrich
