sysGetMonitorWidth - BambooBasic

sysGetMonitorWidth

Category: System

Syntax:

sysGetMonitorWidth:Int(monitor:Int)

Parameters

monitor : Int

Returns

Int

Summary

Returns the width of the given monitor in pixels.

Takes monitor (the monitor number, zero-based).

Returns the width in pixels, or 0 if the monitor number is out of range. Can be called BEFORE b2dGraphics - a program choosing a monitor has no window yet.

Asking a monitor's size and then opening fullscreen at exactly that size gives a 1:1 surface with no letterboxing.

Linux edition only - this function has no Windows counterpart, so it is not in the online documentation.

Example

; Open fullscreen on the second monitor at its exact resolution,
; so the frame fills it 1:1 with no letterboxing.
If sysGetMonitors() > 1 Then
	sysSetMonitor(1)
EndIf
Local m:Int = sysGetMonitor()
b2dGraphics(sysGetMonitorWidth(m), sysGetMonitorHeight(m), 0)
