multiple-monitors

How can you program a dotNet Windows (or WPF) Application in order to let it going fullscreen on the secondary monitor? grantnz Extension method to Maximize a window to the secondary monitor (if there is one). Doesn't assume that the secondary monitor is System.Windows.Forms.Screen.AllScreens[2]; using System.Linq; using System.Windows; namespace ExtendedControls { static public class WindowExt { // NB : Best to call this function from the windows Loaded event or after showing the window // (otherwise window is just positioned to fill the secondary monitor rather than being maximised). public

Is it possible to enable a second monitor programatically and extend the Windows Desktop onto it in C#? It needs to do the equivalent of turning on the checkbox in the image below. MSDN Device Context Functions What you basically need to do: Use the EnumDisplayDevices() API call to enumerate the display devices on the system and look for those that don't have the DISPLAY_DEVICE_ATTACHED_TO_DESKTOP flag set (this will include any mirroring devices so not all will be physical displays.) Once you've found the display device you'll need to get a valid display mode to change it to, you can find
