Conversion Formulas

These formulas help convert specific Quaver values into osu! equivalents.

ColumnAlignment

- Quaver range: -683 (left) to +683 (right)
- osu! range: 0 (left) to 853.33 (right) (16:9 ratio)

Since this formula depends on Quaver's ColumnSize, convert ColumnSize before ColumnAlignment:

  
ColumnAlignment = round(((1366 - SIZES) / 2) * ((-2 * ColumnStart)/(WIDTHS - (16/9 * 480)) - 1))  

ComboPosY

  
ComboPosY = round(768/480 * (ComboPosition - 480) + 768/2)
