Slight problem with calculation of number of lines of text that can be displayed
#1
I'm so close to having everything working - just a few tiny odds and ends to figure out....

Let's say I open a Windows a screen with QB64 that is 400 x 400 pixels and I start displaying text on the screen with a font size of 12. My calculations say that I should be able to fit 33 lines of text on this screen (33 x 12 pixels = 396 pixels). However, in actuality, I can only fit 32 lines.

Is there something like an invisible "buffer" of a few pixels that cannot be used?

When I use a screen capture utility to capture a copy of my window, I can see that the area inside of the physical screen borders is precisely 400 pixels so I can't quite make sense of what I'm running into.
