Description
## Version of Dear PyGui
Version: 1.11.1
Operating System: Windows 10 (10.0.19045).
## My Issue/Question
When UI scaling is set to 200% in Windows, DPG viewport sticks to the left edge of the screen no matter what `x_pos` is specified for the viewport.
Reported in this Discord thread:
https://discord.com/channels/736279277242417272/1142953321821372550/1259654875193802864
Probably caused by `get_horizontal_shift` in `mvViewport_win32.cpp`: it seems to be unaware that `GetWindowRect` is affected by DPI scaling, whereas `DwmGetWindowAttribute` is not. Therefore DPI scaling probably affects the overall result, though I don't see how it can produce large enough offset.
Another hypothesis is that `GetWindowRect` fails for some reason, and `window_rectangle` remains uninitialized, which yields random garbage in the return value.
## To Reproduce
_TBD_
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Go to '...'
2. Click on '....'
3. Scroll down to '....'
4. See error
## Expected behavior
`x_pos` placing the viewport at the specified position.
