GetDesktopWindow() on dual monitor system.
Posted: Wed Sep 25, 2024 06:55 PM

When I ask for the desktop windows on my dual monitor system I get the main monitor by GetWndRect( GetDesktopWindows() ). Is there a way to the the second or n monitors as well. I am trying to display multiple dialogs across the screens for a scheduling app and need to know how far I can go to the right.

Thanks,

Please open fwh\source\function\getsysin.prg:
Then please go through all the function under the heading

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

//----------------------------------------------------------------------------//
// MULTIPLE MONITORS FUNCTIONS
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------//

Then you ask us specific questions and we will help you.
These functions are enough for handling multi-monitor issues
