Re: Mac Multiple Monitor Menubar Management
Thanks, Phil. Taking another look at it, I was able to get the code to work using working screenRects. On Mon, Jan 24, 2022 at 9:20 AM Mike Kerner wrote: > Hmm.

Re: Mac Multiple Monitor Menubar Management
Hmm. I tried that before I dove into windowBoundingRect and ran into a problem, but now it seems to be working, so maybe. Thanks, Phil.

Re: Mac Multiple Monitor Menubar Management
Actually 'the working screenRects' returns that info for all screens. Maybe that could work for you.

Mac Multiple Monitor Menubar Management
Other than using windowBoundingRect, is there any way to compute the menubar height? The 2021 MBP's have changed the height of the menubar to accommodate the notch. Generally it's 42 pixels on the new MBP, except when it's something else, especially on secondary monitors (e.g. I've seen it at 50 px in one case). I want to constrain the movement of a window to keep the user from dragging it under the menubar. The code I have works great, until you add monitor 2. screenRects (plural) tells you what the rect is for the second window, but it doesn't take the menubar into account. I could just assume it's the same height as the menubar on monitor 1, but that assumes that the menubar is present on monitor 2, as well. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
