[e-users] background variables
When setting an E background, what are xjust,yjust,xperc, and yperc for? I'm assuming just is for justification and perc is for scaled percentage of background size. How are they used? It seems like the bounds are 0 - 512 for just and 0 - 1024 for perc. Does a 0 value disable perc and just, resulting in no change to the image? If the screen resolution width is greater than 1024, does 1024 still stand for the maximum width? = -- Andrew R.
