FIND WIDTH

This function calculates the width of a rectangle that fits on the screen at the current resolution, taking into account that a certain number of rectangles fit on the same line, and ensuring a bilateral offset of a certain number of pixels in total. The number is rounded to the nearest 8 pixels. Offset can be omitted, and it will be considered as zero (0).
