Is there a command that gets the size of the window, and not the resolution?

No, that returns the displayed width ( don't know how to call it ). Lets say my screen is running on a 1280x1024x32 resolution but the screen size is 1152x864x32 ( windowed ). dbScreenWidth () will return 1280 instead of 1152, I need a way to get the 1152.

dbScreenWidth() will return the width of the window
dbDesktopWidth() will return the width of the screen
in your case, i dont think dbScreenWidth() would return 1280, it should return 1152

I don't know why that is.

What Hassan said is how it should be.

Are you trying to get the window width after it has been resized?

dbScreenWidth() will return the resolution that the application has been told to run at.

Yeah, I first set dbDisplayMode to 1280x1024x32, then I resize the screen to 1152x864x32, here's my code:



Maybe I should put the display mode at the size of the screen, but then I would only be able to size the screen to supported resolutions by the video card. I think....

The point is, I'm loading my resolution preferences from a .Set file, so in the end I will only allow users to change to the resolutions that they support, but that is in the options menu, so what I think I should to is manualy check if a resolution is supported, and then instead of resizing the screen just set the display mode to the size I want the screen to be ( if I'm correct ).
