Is there a way to get the bounds of the front interface?

[VirtualVirgin]

I would like to position some things based on the front interface size so I can resize from a template.
Is there a .get to do that?

@VirtualVirgin Nope, but it has been requested a few times. Currently the best you can do is store your UI width and height in a constant.

@VirtualVirgin Yeah like Dave, I always start my interface script this way:

const var INTERFACE_WIDTH = 1000; const var INTERFACE_HEIGHT = 623;
Content.makeFrontInterface(INTERFACE_WIDTH, INTERFACE_HEIGHT);

So this can be used everywhere

@ustk You know it would be easy to add this... should I add separate getWidth/getHeight functions, or just a getInterfaceSize function that returns both? I'm thinking the latter.

@d-healey The three

@ustk The API has a limit on how many functions can be added per class, so I think the one is the way to go :)

Tis done - https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/pull/642

@d-healey yeah perfect again friend Dave

Thanks :) I just added this and it does what I needed.
