This class provides the information. For example, to compute the aspect ratio of a paint device: \code QPaintDeviceMetrics pdm( myWidget ); double aspect = (double)pdm.widthMM() / (double)pdm.heightMM(); \endcode QPaintDeviceMetrics contains methods to provide the width and height of a device in both pixels (width() and height()) and millimeters (widthMM() and heightMM()), the number of colors the device supports (numColors()), the number of bit planes (depth()), and the resolution of the device (logicalDpiX() and logicalDpiY()). It is not always possible for QPaintDeviceMetrics to compute the values you ask for, particularly for external devices. The ultimate example is asking for the resolution of of a QPrinter that is set to "print to file": who knows what printer that file will end up on? */ /*!

For X, this is usually the same as could be computed from widthMM(), but it varies on Windows. */ /*! \fn int QPaintDeviceMetrics::logicalDpiY() const Returns the vertical resolution of the device in dots per inch, which is used when computing font sizes.
