I don't see the point of using pixel as unit of measure here. The
unit should be the line, because the problem to solve here can
(should) be expressed in terms of lines; going down to the pixel level
is unnecessary and confusing, IMO.
So, given a window which is W lines high, the line L that is X % from
the top of the window can be determined as
L = round((X/100)*(W-1))+1
Conversely, the percentage X from the top of the window can be determined as
X = 100*(L-1)/(W-1)
Therefore, testing with a window of W=11 lines high makes the above
calculations quite easy, because each line counts as 10%.
