Get the Size of a virtual display without any dependencies

public enum SystemMetric
{
    VirtualScreenWidth = 78, // CXVIRTUALSCREEN 0x0000004E 
    VirtualScreenHeight = 79, // CYVIRTUALSCREEN 0x0000004F 
}

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern int GetSystemMetrics(SystemMetric metric);

public static Size GetVirtualDisplaySize()
{
    var width = GetSystemMetrics(SystemMetric.VirtualScreenWidth);
    var height = GetSystemMetrics(SystemMetric.VirtualScreenHeight);

    return new Size(width, height);
}
