optain supported resolutions via EnumDisplaySettingsEx call

[Galapo]

Looking back, I think I inadvertently posted a request in the wrong area here. Hopefully this is now in a more appropriate area. To repeat my request:

Does anyone know how to modify the monitor info code by fisofo to retreive an array of supported resolutions rather than the current display?

This is for my simple SetResolution app: http://www.boot-land.net/forums/?showtopic=2897

At the moment I'm just using rescopy.exe from here and parsing its output. However, someone wants to use SetResolution under 64bit and rescopy doesn't function under 64bit.

I realise a call to WMI will work (and it does as I've tried). But the problem there is that a call to WMI for supported resolutions doesn't work properly under PE. EnumDisplaySettingsEx is the way to go, but it is quite complex to say the least!

There's possible code from here which could be ported:

DEVMODE mode;
      ZeroMemory(&mode, sizeof(DEVMODE));
      mode.dmSize = sizeof(DEVMODE);
      mode.dmDriverExtra = 0;
      if (EnumDisplaySettings(NULL, ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS, &mode))
      {
          _tprintf(_T("\nCurrent: h%u v%u b%u f%u\n"), mode.dmPelsWidth, mode.dmPelsHeight, mode.dmBitsPerPel, mode.dmDisplayFrequency);
      }
      _tprintf("Supported modes:\n");
      for(DWORD index = 0;;++index)
      {
           ZeroMemory(&mode, sizeof(DEVMODE));
           mode.dmSize = sizeof(DEVMODE);
           mode.dmDriverExtra = 0;
           DWORD res = EnumDisplaySettingsEx(NULL, index, &mode, 0 );
           if (!res) break;
           _tprintf(_T("h%u v%u b%u f%u\n"), mode.dmPelsWidth, mode.dmPelsHeight, mode.dmBitsPerPel, mode.dmDisplayFrequency);
      }

Regards and thanks for any help,

Galapo.

Try this:

Global Const $EDS_RAWMODE = 0x2

Dim $DEVMODE, $DllRet, $enum = 0

$DEVMODE = DllStructCreate("char dmDeviceName[32];ushort dmSpecVersion;ushort dmDriverVersion;short dmSize;" & _
                           "ushort dmDriverExtra;dword dmFields;short dmOrientation;short dmPaperSize;short dmPaperLength;" & _
                           "short dmPaperWidth;short dmScale;short dmCopies;short dmDefaultSource;short dmPrintQuality;" & _
                           "short dmColor;short dmDuplex;short dmYResolution;short dmTTOption;short dmCollate;" & _
                           "byte dmFormName[32];dword dmBitsPerPel;int dmPelsWidth;dword dmPelsHeight;" & _
                           "dword dmDisplayFlags;dword dmDisplayFrequency")
    
DllStructSetData($DEVMODE, "dmSize", DllStructGetSize($DEVMODE))
    
Do
    $DllRet = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "EnumDisplaySettingsEx", "ptr", 0, "dword", $enum, _
                      "ptr", DllStructGetPtr($DEVMODE), "dword", 0)
    $DllRet = $DllRet[0]
    
    $enum += 1
    
    ConsoleWrite("Width = " & DllStructGetData($DEVMODE, "dmPelsWidth") & " " & _
                 "Height = " & DllStructGetData($DEVMODE, "dmPelsHeight") & " " & _
                 "Bits = " & DllStructGetData($DEVMODE, "dmBitsPerPel") & " " & _
                 "Frequency = " & DllStructGetData($DEVMODE, "dmDisplayFrequency") & @LF)
Until $DllRet = 0

$DEVMODE = 0

Hi rasim,

That's simply a fantastic help! It's great that you have knowledge to be able to do this and willingly take the time to share.

Many thanks,

Galapo.

A slight adjustment for my purposes:

Global Const $EDS_RAWMODE = 0x2

Dim $DEVMODE, $DllRet, $enum = 0

$DEVMODE = DllStructCreate("char dmDeviceName[32];ushort dmSpecVersion;ushort dmDriverVersion;short dmSize;" & _
                           "ushort dmDriverExtra;dword dmFields;short dmOrientation;short dmPaperSize;short dmPaperLength;" & _
                           "short dmPaperWidth;short dmScale;short dmCopies;short dmDefaultSource;short dmPrintQuality;" & _
                           "short dmColor;short dmDuplex;short dmYResolution;short dmTTOption;short dmCollate;" & _
                           "byte dmFormName[32];dword dmBitsPerPel;int dmPelsWidth;dword dmPelsHeight;" & _
                           "dword dmDisplayFlags;dword dmDisplayFrequency")
   
DllStructSetData($DEVMODE, "dmSize", DllStructGetSize($DEVMODE))
   
Do
    $DllRet = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "EnumDisplaySettingsEx", "ptr", 0, "dword", $enum, _
                      "ptr", DllStructGetPtr($DEVMODE), "dword", 0)
    $DllRet = $DllRet[0]
   
    $enum += 1
   
    ConsoleWrite("Width = " & DllStructGetData($DEVMODE, "dmPelsWidth") / 65536 & " " & _
                 "Height = " & DllStructGetData($DEVMODE, "dmPelsHeight") / 65536  & " " & _
                 "Bits = " & DllStructGetData($DEVMODE, "dmBitsPerPel") / 65536  & " " & _
                 "Frequency = " & DllStructGetData($DEVMODE, "dmDisplayFrequency") / 65536  & @CRLF)
Until $DllRet = 0

$DEVMODE = 0

Thanks again for your help with this!
