Standard way to write screen resolution

[CodingLover]

Hi all, As far as I know the standard way to express the screen resolution is Width X Height. For example, 1024 X 768 and so on. But I couldn't find any documentation for the standard. Anyone of you have more details on this?

Width x Height is the way I'm used to it as well. One of my pet peeves is the default xaml generated in wpf, where they have swapped around e.g. Height="300" Width="300".

My concern is that order may confused, if different people use it in different way. Actually I am in a situation like that. One of my client use Height X Width and I practice so far it in other way round. I want to convince him about that general practice that lots of people are using.

Tell him to look at the Screen resolution screen in Windows. Like this: http://imgur.com/pZkLX[^] Problem solved.

It even says it's the recommended way of writing!

Tell your client to look at any site for manufacturers of Monitors/TVs/Projectors etc. they all specify screen resolutions in width x height.

I think that's the least of WPF's problems...

For the most part I like wpf, it allows me to do some really nice ui stuff. But now and then it's utterly stupid, like trying to get the text in a textbox to be selected programatically. Because of wpf's focus system I have to use a long workaround to get it to work.

It's a layer of abstraction too far for me, I stuck with WinForms.
