Eto_Location on Rhino_view_point

Scripting

I want the eto form position to be aligned to the top left or top right corner of the Rhino view, but I can’t seem to find the right way so far

#! python 3
import Eto.Forms as ef
import Rhino
import Eto.Drawing as ed
import scriptcontext

view = scriptcontext.doc.Views.ActiveView

rt = Rhino.UI.EtoExtensions.ToEtoScreen(view.ClientRectangle)

print(rt.Width)
print(rt.Height)
print(rt.X)
print(rt.Y)

form = ef.Form()
form.Width = 200
form.Height = 100
form.Location = ed.PointF(view.ClientRectangle.X , view.ClientRectangle.Y)
form.Show()

Hi @tom33, below seems to work over here using 2 screens:

#! python 3
import Eto.Forms as ef
import Rhino
import Eto.Drawing as ed
import scriptcontext

view = scriptcontext.doc.Views.ActiveView
rt = Rhino.UI.EtoExtensions.ToEtoScreen(view.ScreenRectangle)

form = ef.Form()
form.Width = 200
form.Height = 100
form.Location = ed.PointF(rt.X , rt.Y)
form.Show()

does it work for you too ?
