Unigine::Displays Class

Header: #include <UnigineDisplays.h>

The Displays class allows getting information about connected displays such as the number of screen displays and the index of the main one, their position and size in pixels. It provides access to the name and current dpi. This class also allows obtaining the total number of available modes for displays and getting the resolution and refresh rate by the mode index.

AppSystemLogic.h

Source code (C++)
#include <UnigineLogic.h>

class AppSystemLogic : public Unigine::SystemLogic
{
public:
	AppSystemLogic();
	~AppSystemLogic() override;

	int init() override;

	int update() override;
	int postUpdate() override;

	int shutdown() override;

	int showDisplayInfo(int current_display);

};

Source code (C++)
#include "AppSystemLogic.h"
#include <UnigineDisplays.h>

	window_0->setPosition(Math::ivec2(60, 60));
	window_0->setSize(Math::ivec2(960, 600));
	// render the window
	window_0->show();

	// get the current display
	current_display = Displays::getCurrent();
	// show the information on the current display in the main window
	showDisplayInfo(current_display);

	return 1;
}

Members


int getMain ( ) const#

Returns the main system display index.

Return value

The index of the main system display.

int getDefaultSystemDPI ( ) const#

Returns the default system dots/pixels-per-inch value.

Return value

The dots/pixels-per-inch value.

int getNum ( ) const#

Returns the number of available video displays.

Return value

The number of available video displays.

Math::ivec2 getPosition ( int display_index ) const#

Returns the display position by its index.

Arguments

  • int display_index - Display index.

Return value

Display position.

Math::ivec2 getResolution ( int display_index ) const#

Returns the display resolution by its index.

Arguments

  • int display_index - Display index.

Return value

Display resolution.

int getDPI ( int display_index ) const#

Returns the display DPI by its index.

Arguments

  • int display_index - Display index.

Return value

Display DPI.

int getNumModes ( int display_index ) const#

Returns the total number of available display modes.

Arguments

  • int display_index - Display index.

Return value

Number of available display modes.

Math::ivec2 getModeResolution ( int display_index, int mode_index ) const#

Returns the resolution of the selected display mode for the selected display.

Arguments

Return value

Resolution.

int getModeRefreshRate ( int display_index, int mode_index ) const#

Returns the refresh rate of the specified display mode.

Arguments

Return value

Refresh rate of the specified display mode.

const char * getName ( int display_index ) const#

Returns the system name of the display.

Arguments

  • int display_index - Display index.

Return value

System name of the display.

int getCurrent ( ) const#

Returns the index of the display that is currently under cursor.
