Setting up a particular position for an object in Fullscreen mode

[snowf1ake]

I have some experience with SFML, but now i decided to make a fullscreen game. After some headache with finding a proper resolution for each PC, i stumbled upon a problem with a specific task. Let's imagine i need to place an object to x,y = 1000,1300. What do i do if the player's monitor does not have this position?(resolution is smaller). Is there any way to put objects to particular locations, as in

VideoMode(800,600)

i would use

setPosition(700,300)

, or will i have to use math to calculate specific locations in percentages of the screen? For example, some web developers might put a header for the 20% of the page, so it would work on all computers.

Thanks in advance.

You can use a fixed size view (sf::View), that will allow you to use the same coordinate system regardless of the size of the window. Then everything will be scaled to fit the window -- if that's what you want.

Seems like i will need to research sf::View. Thanks for a quick response, i will try to figure it out.
