The function dbScreenWidth always returns 640, regardless of a change when the user maximizes/changes the window size. Can I obtain the real window size with this or another function?

Example:

#include "DarkGDK.h"
#include <stdio.h>

void DarkGDK (void)
{
dbSyncOn ();
dbSyncRate (60);
while (LoopGDK ())
{
char message [100];
dbClear(0,0,0);
sprintf (message, "Width: %d", dbScreenWidth());
dbText (10, 10, message);
dbSync ();
}
}

lbp,

dbScreenWidth() will return the width of the DX surface (ie: the DisplayMode), not the actual size of the window.

I do not know if is there a method to get the Window dimension.

If you mean the 'desktop' resolution then

GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXSCREEN)
GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYSCREEN)

should do the trick!

I think that's exactly what he needed, chunks chunks.
Let's wait for his position.

Thank you very mutch , that shows the window size.

¿There is any possibility to avoid the scaling of the fonts and the scene when the user changes the window size?
