Wrong coordinates on multiple monitors - wpf

Question

I have a Datagrid and I want to know the position of a datacell for overlaying it with a window.
It works fine with only one monitor, but with multiple monitors, the window is displaced.
Here's the code:
Point point = cell.PointToScreen(new Point(0, 0));
...
Window myWindow = new Window();
myWindow.Top = point.Y;
myWindow.Left = point.X;
Somebody has some experience with positioning on multiple monitors?
EDIT:
I made following test:
public MyWindow()
{
...
this.LocationChanged += MyWindow_LocationChanged;
}
void MyWindow_LocationChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine(this.Top + " <--> " + this.PointToScreen(new Point(0, 0)).Y);
}
Results:
- Single-Monitor: 0 <--> 30; 20 <--> 50; 100 <--> 130
==> Always difference of 30 (may be caused by title bar)
- Dual-Monitor: 0 <--> 30; 20 <--> 55; 100 <--> 153
==> At 0,0 difference of 30. But the more I moved the window away from 0,0. the greater becomes the difference, but should stay the same. Very strange!
EDIT2:
Here's my solution, thanks to CodeNaked for the hint:
Point point = cell.PointToScreen(new Point(0, 0));
...
Window myWindow = new Window();
PresentationSource source = PresentationSource.FromVisual(this);
myWindow.Top = point.Y / source.CompositionTarget.TransformToDevice.M22;
myWindow.Left = point.X / source.CompositionTarget.TransformToDevice.M11;

Answer 1

This may have to do with a non-standard DPI setting, but I'm pretty sure that setting affects all monitors. This blog shows how to get the correct position. But the code is effectively:
PresentationSource source = PresentationSource.FromVisual(control);
double dpiX = 96.0 * source.CompositionTarget.TransformToDevice.M11;
double dpiY = 96.0 * source.CompositionTarget.TransformToDevice.M22;
window.Left = point.X * 96.0 / dpiX;
window.Top = point.Y * 96.0 / dpiY;

Answer 2

The behavior you described is not correct and I can't reproduce it.
I created a simple Window with the following code:
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
LocationChanged += (s, e) =>
{
var screen = PointToScreen(new Point(0, 0));
var window = new Point(Left, Top);
var diff = screen - window;
textbox.Text = window.ToString() + Environment.NewLine +
screen.ToString() + Environment.NewLine + diff;
};
}
}
The last line (= the difference between the two coordinates) never changes.

I'm unable to reproduce the problem your experience. The upper left corner of the client area of the window (the point returned by PointToScreen) is always translated 8 pixels horizontally and 30 pixels vertically from the upper left corner of the window. This is on a two-monitor setup.
You should be able to compute the values 8 and 30 from the SystemParameters class, however I must admit that I'm not sure exactly what parameters to use to arrive at the actual values on my system.
