How make the same hole in two Form's on remote screen (client side), based on area drawn on server side?

I have the following code and want draw the same hole in two Form's on remote screen (client side), based on area drawn on server side.

I have the same Form (Form3) in both sides (server and client) that is a "mirror" where i'm drawing a area that must stays inside this same form on client side.

The Form3 in server side have 50% of max AlphaBlend value, this is necessary to see remote screen behind Form3.

---

Before all, i want say that i'm receiving the remote screen on server side and and mouse click positions works like expected.

Then this is my trouble:

The following code produce the result showed on image above. I think that this code is right but is missing align this hole with the Form3.

Someone could help with this? sorry if this is a bad question, but this is all my actual trouble and i tried express all in this question of better way that i'm able.

This is all relevant code:

Server side:

Form2 (where i see the remote screen):

Client side:

  Width := Screen.Width;
end;

{

Properties of Form2:

}

end.

Form3 (the same of server side):

unit Unit3;

interface

uses
 ...

type
  TForm3 = class(TForm)
    Panel1: TPanel;
    Label1: TLabel;
    procedure FormShow(Sender: TObject);

  Self.Top := (GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYSCREEN) - Self.Height) div 2;
end;

procedure TForm3.FormShow(Sender: TObject);

begin
  inherited;
  pr.WndParent := Form2.Handle;
end;

{

end.

Receiving the area on client side:

procedure CS1_Read(Self: Pointer; Sender: TObject; Socket: TCustomWinSocket);
var
 X1, X2, Y1, Y2: Integer;
 List: TStrings;
 FormRegion, HoleRegion: HRGN;
 StrCommand: string;

begin

if Pos(';', StrCommand) > 0 then
begin

    List := TStringList.Create;
    try

      ExtractStrings([';'], [], PChar(StrCommand), List);

      Form3 := TForm3.Create(Form2); // The Form2 already was created and is showing

      X1 := Round(StrToIntDef(List[0], 0) - Form2.Left);
      Y1 := Round(StrToIntDef(List[1], 0) - Form2.Top);
      X2 := Round(StrToIntDef(List[2], 0) - Form2.Left);
      Y2 := Round(StrToIntDef(List[3], 0) - Form2.Top);


      FormRegion := CreateRectRgn(0, 0, Form3.Width, Form3.Height);
      HoleRegion := CreateRectRgn(X1, Y1, X2, Y2);
      CombineRgn(FormRegion, FormRegion, HoleRegion, RGN_DIFF);
      SetWindowRgn(Form3.handle, FormRegion, true);

      FormRegion := CreateRectRgn(0, 0, Form2.Width, Form2.Height);
      HoleRegion := CreateRectRgn(X1, Y1, X2, Y2);
      CombineRgn(FormRegion, FormRegion, HoleRegion, RGN_DIFF);
      SetWindowRgn(Form2.handle, FormRegion, true);

      Form3.ShowModal;
      Form3.Release;

    finally
      List.Free;
    end;
  end;
end;

On the client side you have a semitransparent gray form (Form2) that has the size of the screen. On top of that form you have a opaque white form (Form3) centered on the screen. In Form3 you have a rectangular hole at Top = Y and Left = X in coordinates of Form3.

I understand that your problem is that you want to draw a hole in Form2 that is aligned with the hole in Form3.

You need to convert the coordinate system of Form3 to that of Form2 with a simple addition:

Form2.Hole.Left := Form3.Left + Form3.Hole.Left;
Form2.Hole.Top  := Form3.Top  + Form3.Hole.Top;

That would align the holes. You seem to attempt something like that in your calculation, but you refer to Form2.Left and Form2.Top which is useless as they are both 0.

If I misunderstood your question and you actually would like Form3 hole to be aligned with the Form2 hole, then you would need to move Form3 to top - left of the screen and not center it ...

... Or, considering your comment: if i'm drawing on server side in a area far of Form3 (client) for example more to left side of screen, draw only the hole of Form2 and if i draw more to middle of screen, draw the both hole aligned would be accomplshed by simply swapping the terms:

Form3.Hole.Left := Form2.Hole.Left - Form3.Left
Form3.Hole.Top  := Form2.Hole.Top  - Form3.Top

This converts the Form2 coordinates to Form3 coordintaes, which may become negative values (iow outside of the form) in situations like your example.

Adapting the above to your code, you need to first deal with Form2 region with the received Form2.Hole coordinates, then subtract Form3 coordinates (Left and Top) from X1..Y2 and then deal with Form3 region*.

  X1 := Round(StrToIntDef(List[0], 0) - Form2.Left); // Form2 props can be removed as hardcoded to 0
  Y1 := Round(StrToIntDef(List[1], 0) - Form2.Top);  // -"-
  X2 := Round(StrToIntDef(List[2], 0) - Form2.Left); // -"-
  Y2 := Round(StrToIntDef(List[3], 0) - Form2.Top);  // -"-

  FormRegion := CreateRectRgn(0, 0, Form2.Width, Form2.Height);
  HoleRegion := CreateRectRgn(X1, Y1, X2, Y2);
  CombineRgn(FormRegion, FormRegion, HoleRegion, RGN_DIFF);
  SetWindowRgn(Form2.handle, FormRegion, true);

  X1 := X1 - Form3.Left;
  Y1 := Y1 - Form3.Top;
  X2 := X2 - Form3.Left;
  Y2 := Y2 - Form3.Top;

  FormRegion := CreateRectRgn(0, 0, Form3.Width, Form3.Height);
  HoleRegion := CreateRectRgn(X1, Y1, X2, Y2);
  CombineRgn(FormRegion, FormRegion, HoleRegion, RGN_DIFF);
  SetWindowRgn(Form3.handle, FormRegion, true);

Edit

It appears counterintuitive that your Server.Form2 isn't the same size as the screen (and therefore Client.Form2). But maybe I never really understood for what actual purpose the setup is used.

Anyway, with equally sized, centered Form3's, but with different screen sizes at Server and at Client, you need to adjust the Form3.Hole coordinates at the client with half the difference of Server and Client screen extents, or, since the Form3 forms are centered, you can calculate the horizontal and vertical correction like

ResolutionCorrectionX := Server.Form3.Left - Client.Form3.Left;
ResolutionCorrectionY := Server.Form3.Top - Client.Form3.Top;

that you then add to the X- and Y-coordinates for HoleRegion of Form3.

X1 := X1 - Form3.Left + ResolutionCorrectionX; // and similar for X2, Y1 and Y2

Btw, just of curiosity, why are you using Round() for calculations based on integers?
