# pixelsPerLine

Gets the scale of pixels per line in a scrolling event source.

## Declaration

```swift
var pixelsPerLine: Double { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion This function returns the scale of pixels per line in the specified event source. For example, if the scale in the event source is 10.5 pixels per line, this function would return 10.5. Every scrolling event can be interpreted to be scrolling by pixel or by line. By default, the scale is about ten pixels per line. You can alter the scale with the function CGEventSourceSetPixelsPerLine.
