Re: Screen arrangement
Chip: The main screen will have a top left coordinate of 0;0. Then get the coordinates of each screen. You can then determine where each screen is. A horizontal negative value means the screen is to the left of the main screen. A vertical negative value means the screen is above the main screen. Of course above and below are virtual directions based on how the user has set up the screens in the OS. From the Count Screens, and Screen coordinates you can then determine the edges of each screen and their logical position.

Re: Screen arrangement
Chip, You may be able to determine this information by combining the output of the Count screens and SCREEN COORDINATES commands: https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17.2/Count-screens.301-4387339.en.html https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17.2/SCREEN-COORDINATES.301-4387338.en.html Regards, Narinder Chandi, ToolBox Systems Ltd. -- -Original Message- From: 4D_Tech <4d_tech-boun...@lists.4d.com> on behalf of 4D Tech Mailing List <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> Reply-To: 4D Tech Mailing List <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> Date: Friday, 9 August 2019 at 17:52 To: 4D Tech Mailing List <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> Cc: Chip Scheide <4d_o...@pghrepository.org> Subject: Screen arrangement In a situation where there are 2 or more screens attached to a computer. is there any way to determine the screen arrangement?

Screen arrangement
In a situation where there are 2 or more screens attached to a computer. is there any way to determine the screen arrangement? (horizontal, vertical, grid) In a 2 or more horizontal which screen is main (left, right, other) In a 2 or more vertical which screen is main (Top, bottom other) in a grid (4 or more) with at least 2 vertical and at least 2 horizontal) which screen in main?
