How do I find out the size of the entire desktop? Not the \"working area\" and not the \"screen resolution\", both of which refer to only o
This doesn't answer the question, but merely adds additional insight on a window's Point (location) within all the screens).
Use the code below to find out if a Point (e.g. last known Location of window) is within the bounds of the overall Desktop. If not, reset the window's Location to the default pBaseLoc;
Code does not account for the TaskBar or other Toolbars, yer on yer own there.
Example Use: Save the Window location to a database from station A. User logs into station B with 2 monitors and moves the window to the 2nd monitor, logs out saving new location. Back to station A and the window wouldn't be shown unless the above code is used.
My further resolve implemented saving the userID and station's IP (& winLoc) to database or local user prefs file for a given app, then load in user pref for that station & app.
Point pBaseLoc = new Point(40, 40)
int x = -500, y = 140;
Point pLoc = new Point(x, y);
bool bIsInsideBounds = false;
foreach (Screen s in Screen.AllScreens)
{
bIsInsideBounds = s.Bounds.Contains(pLoc);
if (bIsInsideBounds) { break; }
}//foreach (Screen s in Screen.AllScreens)
if (!bIsInsideBounds) { pLoc = pBaseLoc; }
this.Location = pLoc;
