Command Index · BlitzBasic · Display

DisplayWidth:Int32 display:Int32

Parameter	Mode	Type	Default	Description
display	In	Int32	required	The display number, from 1 to CountDisplays.

Returns: The width in pixels, or 0 if the display does not exist.

Description

〔BlitzLLVM〕 This command does not exist in the original Blitz products. BlitzLLVM adds it.

The width in pixels of what a display shows right now, which is the resolution of the desktop on it. Use it to open a Graphics window of the size of the screen. This is a BlitzLLVM extension: the originals have no way to ask for more than the main display.

Differences

• A display number that does not exist gives 0 (an empty text for the name) instead of stopping the program, because a display can be unplugged while the program runs.
