Hi Tim,

Normally, people set the screen resolution to a higher number because they want more to fit on their screen. They would be surprised to see that your application doesn't show more on screen despite a higher resolution, if you manage to do this.

I don't think that the actual screen size is of any importance. Sometimes, it could be useful to adjust an application to the screen resolution, e.g. if you are making a full-screen interface. The physical screen size has nothing to do with this.

So, why would you want to do this?

Best,

Mark

Hello!

I'm working on a project and I would like to get the "physical" screen size of the system. Is there a way to do this? I see how to get many of the screen attributes...but as to physical siza...nadda.

A cheesy way to do this, I suppose, would be to display an object when the app is started up and ask the user to measure it and enter the measurement. Based on that I could calculate the size of the screen.

Has anyone discovered how to do this?
