Hello, I wanna move the portrait to make a custom inventory system, it is suposed to look like this:

But looks like this:

I don't know what is happening, this the script:
Lua:
BlzFrameClearAllPoints(Portrait)
BlzFrameSetPoint(Portrait, FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, InventoryMenu, FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, 0.022500, -0.062500)
BlzFrameSetPoint(Portrait, FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, InventoryMenu, FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, -0.025000, 0.062500)
 
the portrait frame position and visuals/size depends on the resolution ratio. For portrait 0/0 is the left bottom corner regardless of resolution and x=0.8 is always most right. To pos it into your box you first need to figure out how much additional space there is at the left screen side.

This thing might help you in doing that, I got it from niklas or screw the trees.
BlzGetLocalClientWidth()/BlzGetLocalClientHeight()*0.6
 
I was testing a lot for what to do because I wanna the frame works for any resolution, so this is the best I could do:
Lua:
local extraWidth = ((BlzGetLocalClientWidth()/BlzGetLocalClientHeight() * 0.6) - 0.8) / 2
minX, maxX = -extraWidth, 0.8+extraWidth
Lua:
local x = 0.1525000 + minX*0.1*BlzGetLocalClientWidth()/BlzGetLocalClientHeight()
BlzFrameSetAbsPoint(Portrait, FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, x, 0.362500)
BlzFrameSetAbsPoint(Portrait, FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, x + 0.1*1.333*BlzGetLocalClientHeight()/BlzGetLocalClientWidth(), 0.292500)
Is still not perfect, but is the closest I could do (it only looks good in the 4:3 resolution):
