How to know coordinates in a real image from a scaled image

First of all thanks for your time reading my question :-)

I have an original image (w': 2124, h': 3204) and the same image scaled (w: 512, h: 768). The ratio for width is 4.14 (rw) and the ratio for height is 4.17 (rh).

I'm trying to know the coordinates (x', y') in the original image when I receive the coordinates in the scaled image (x, y). I'm using the formula: x' = x * rw and y' = y * rh. But when I'm painting a line, or a rectangle always appears a shift that is incremented when x or y is higher.

Please anybody knows how do I transform coordinates without losing accuracy?

Thanks in advance! Oscar.

Or you can use QTransform::quadToQuad to create a transform and use it to map points, rects, lines, etc.:

QVector<QPointF>    p1;
p1 << scaledRect.topLeft() << scaledRect.topRight() << scaledRect.bottomRight() << scaledRect.bottomLeft();
QVector<QPointF>    p2;
p2 << originalRect.topLeft() << originalRect.topRight() << originalRect.bottomRight() << originalRect.bottomLeft();
QTransform::quadToQuad(p1, p2, mappingTransform);
...
QPointF originalPoint = mappingTransform.map(scalePoint);

Always use decimal points.Else you will get the shift Here also you can see

for x' = 512 * 4.14 = 2119.68 and y' = 768 * 4.17 = 3202.56

Here you are losing the coordinates. On which image you are drawing the line original or scaled? Thanks hope will help you...

Use more decimal points, eg. 4.1484375 and 4.171875, otherwise you get 5px difference.
