Code Study (Get Information from Monitor)

[ARPFre]

Good evening to everyone on the forum.

I was guided to start a new topic and not comment on old ones, so I opened this one.

I'm studying the code found, but I couldn't make it work for more than one monitor.

I tried adding loop, while, for and others, and nothing worked.

Could you teach me where to do it?

Maybe try my monitor management example (see my signature).

@Nine

 

I translated it into my language and asked to look at your signature, what would that be?

I checked the 214 pages of your actions on the forum and didn't find it.

Can you teach me what it is and where to find it?

Thank you very much, your code solves me partially, but I will study to learn.

The code shown below gives me the advantage of getting this information remotely or locally.

And that's when I can't loop to all monitors.

Hi @Nine
 

Thanks for the patience to teach me.
Searching a lot, I managed to get parts of some codes and change them to my needs.
I'm sharing it here with you and everyone who needs it.

Thanks again and be well!
