Screen resolution

[BobLaw]

Hi,

How would I detect the users screen settings?

A project I would need to do would require a screen of 800X600, I don't want the menu to come up if they are set lower than that, I would like a message box to tell them they need to set their screen to 800X600 min.

Can it be done with this program?

Thank you.

Re: Screen resolution

Hi,
Yes this can be done, simply use the built-in variables:
%ScreenHeight%
The user’s screen height in pixels.

%ScreenWidth%
The user’s screen width in pixels.

Then display your dialog based on the value of those variables.

Re: Screen resolution

Hi,
%ScreenHeight% and %ScreenWidth% are built in variables that simply read in the systems current settings.

Re: Screen resolution

Does it automatically select the correct resolution - or does the user have to enter it?
