I'm not really sure how you would go about this.

For instance: I have a 2006 iMac that uses both its in-built monitor and another second one.

System Info tells me that my in-built display is 20.1 inches, but nothing about my other one
beyond the fact that it is a VGA display.

However, my Xubuntu machine does report the dimensions of the monitor
connected to it accurately (NEC Corporation 21").

I'm developing a desktop app for Mac & PC that displays photos of coins. I'd like to 
display them at real size but I can't find the properties for the current screen (i.e. the 
one that my app is running on.  I can get the screen colour depth, resolution, scaling 
factor, etc. but not the physical size on the screen such as "27 inch diagonal" or 
physical px per inch.

Can anyone tell me how to get this info, either using just LiveCode or via 
Mac/PC shell/command scripts?

Thanks
