Use second screen by small basic

[martmen]

Hello LitDev,

I am using a dual-monitor setup on my computer. My Small Basic program starts on the primary screen. I use
LDWindows.Create() to open an additional window, but I want to move this second window to the secondary screen.
Is it possible to achieve this with your current extension, or could you provide a new LDWindows command that enables this functionality?

Thank you very much,
Martin

Hi, I will look into this

Hi,

Success I hope - please download latest beta version, perhaps with extension manager - version 1.2.30.11

I nearly forgot the steps to update everything for a new beta release, its been so long - I hope I remembered them all 

I added 2 new methods in LDUtilities - GetScreens and MoveGraphicsWindow

My test code

Code:

'Create 2 GW
GraphicsWindow.Show()
GraphicsWindow.Title = "Main"
id = LDWindows.Create()
GraphicsWindow.Title = id

'Get screens available
screens = LDUtilities.GetScreens()
numScreen = Array.GetItemCount(screens)

'Output screen details
For i = 1 To numScreen
  indices = Array.GetAllIndices(screens[i])
  For j = 1 To Array.GetItemCount(indices)
    TextWindow.WriteLine(indices[j] + " = " + screens[i][indices[j]])
  EndFor
  TextWindow.WriteLine("")
EndFor

'Move the 2nd (current) GW between screens
For i = 1 To numScreen
  LDUtilities.MoveGraphicsWindow(screens[i]["Name"], 500, 0, "False")
  Program.Delay(5000)
EndFor

'Then full screen
For i = 1 To numScreen
  LDUtilities.MoveGraphicsWindow(screens[i]["Name"], 500, 0, "True")
  Program.Delay(5000)
EndFor
