macOS CGPoint locationInView question

[mbpc2d.user]

I am getting the CGPoint from locationInView, and I can't figure out the numbers its producing. They are HUGE (around 1,000,000,000). Are they supposed to be that big, or did I forget something?

If you try and use CGPoint strictly as a string the numbers will be huge and from what I can tell it's more of just a code than an actual point.

However, if you're trying to use something like CGRectMake where you need a specific x and y, you can use point.x and point.y assuming CGPoint point;

Does that make sense?

If you're using something like NSLog to check the values, make sure you use %f instead of %d/%i because the x and y values are floats, not integers.

yeah, that was my problem. I wasn't expecting %d to automatically assume unsigned, although thats what I thought was happening.

Thanks
