Monitors Feature

The Monitors feature provides information about connected displays: work area, DPI, and monitor enumeration. This is useful for multi-monitor positioning and DPI-aware layouts.

Querying Monitors​

// All connected monitors
foreach (InfiniMonitor monitor in window.Monitors) {
    Console.WriteLine($"Monitor: {monitor.MonitorArea}, Work area: {monitor.WorkArea}, Scale: {monitor.Scale}");
}

// The monitor the window is currently on
InfiniMonitor main = window.MainMonitor;

Via feature interface​

IEnumerable<InfiniMonitor> monitors = window.Features.Monitors.GetMonitors();
InfiniMonitor main = window.Features.Monitors.GetMainMonitor();
int dpi = window.Features.Monitors.GetMainMonitorScreenDpi();

Monitor Properties​

Each InfiniMonitor provides:

PropertyTypeDescription
MonitorAreaRectangleFull monitor bounds (including taskbar)
WorkAreaRectangleUsable area (excluding taskbar)
ScaledoubleDPI scale factor (1.0 = 100%, 1.5 = 150%, etc.)

DPI Information​

Get the current screen DPI:

int dpi = window.ScreenDpi;
double scale = window.MainMonitor.Scale;

Using with Positioning​

Use monitor information with the Position feature for multi-monitor setups:

// Center on a specific monitor
window.Features.Position.CenterOnMonitor(1);

// Move within the current monitor's work area
window.Features.Position.MoveWithinCurrentMonitorArea(100, 100);

// Get the monitor the window is currently on
InfiniMonitor current = window.MainMonitor;
Console.WriteLine($"Window is on monitor: {current.MonitorArea}");
