In my code, I need to find a way to replace "Unknown" with a variable that represents a numerical value.

I haven't yet added support for a vertical montior config, but if I can solidify this part of the code I'll expand it as needed, and I know where to come if I need help =)

$FW = DLLCall("user32.dll", "int", "GetSystemMetrics", "int", 78)
 $FH = DLLCall("user32.dll", "int", "GetSystemMetrics", "int", 79)
 $XA = @DesktopWidth
 $YA = @DesktopHeight
 $WA = $FW[0]
 $HA = $FH[0]
 
 If $WA > $XA Then
     $X1 = $XA
     $X2 = $WA-$XA
 ElseIf $WA = $XA Then
     $X1 = $XA
     $X2 = "Unknown"
 EndIf
 
 If $HA > $YA Then
     $Y1 = $YA
     $Y2 = $HA
 ElseIf $HA = $YA Then
     $Y1 = $YA
     $Y2 = "Unknown"
 EndIf
     
 MsgBox(0,"","Monitor A: " & $X1 & " by " & $Y1 & @LF & "Monitor B: " & $X2 & " by " & $Y2)

Here's a WMI query that can give you the monitor number and its dimensions:

CODE
$strComputer = "."
$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & $strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

$colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_DesktopMonitor")

$sMsg = ""

For $objItem In $colItems

$sMsg &= "****************************" & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "Monitor: " & $objItem.DeviceID & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "****************************" & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "Description: " & $objItem.Description & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "Device ID: " & $objItem.DeviceID & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "Monitor Manufacturer: " & $objItem.MonitorManufacturer & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "Monitor Type: " & $objItem.MonitorType & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "Name: " & $objItem.Name & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "Screen Height: " & $objItem.ScreenHeight & @CRLF

$sMsg &= "Screen Width: " & $objItem.ScreenWidth & @CRLF

Next

ConsoleWrite($sMsg & @CRLF)

Interesting...I'll have to do some digging to learn exactly how this works but for now it gets the job done. Here's how I adapted the code to fit my needs:

$strComputer = "."
$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & $strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
$colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_DesktopMonitor")

$i = 0
For $objItem In $colItems
$i = $i + 1
Next
Global $w[$i], $h[$i]
$j = $i-1
$i = 0
For $objItem In $colItems
$w[$i] = $objItem.ScreenWidth
$h[$i] = $objItem.ScreenHeight
$i = $i + 1
Next

For $n = 0 to $j
MsgBox(0,"",$w[$n] & "x" & $h[$n])
Next

I know there has to be a shorter way to make this work but I can't figure it out. Any ideas?

Global Const $SM_VIRTUALWIDTH = 78

Global Const $SM_VIRTUALHEIGHT = 79

$VIRTUALDESKTOPWIDTH = DLLCall("user32.dll","int","GetSystemMetrics","int",$SM_VIRTUALWIDTH)

$VIRTUALDESKTOPWIDTH = $VIRTUALDESKTOPWIDTH[0]

$VIRTUALDESKTOPHEIGHT = DLLCall("user32.dll","int","GetSystemMetrics","int",$SM_VIRTUALHEIGHT)

$VIRTUALDESKTOPHEIGHT = $VIRTUALDESKTOPHEIGHT[0]

As posted above:

$FW = DLLCall("user32.dll", "int", "GetSystemMetrics", "int", 78)
 $FH = DLLCall("user32.dll", "int", "GetSystemMetrics", "int", 79)
 $WA = $FW[0]
 $HA = $FH[0]

This code retrieves the total size of the V-Desktop. I need the width/height of each monitor being used, so I used the concept from Monamo's code to write a working script (posted above), but the code seems a little bulkier than it needs to be. I was wondering if there was a cleaner way of writing it that uses a better grasp on the concept which I don't have at the moment. The end result should be close to or the same as it is right now, giving me an array of width/height values.

I use enumdisplaymonitors for this purpose, (I have a number of scripts to start apps on specific monitors, or on the monitor the mouse is on (from toolbars or other apps tool menus etc.))

here is the MultiMon.au3 I wrote and am currently using (could have a whole bunch more capability, but does what i need it to, the one thing I keep meaning to add is a custom MsgBox that I can place on a specific monitor)

It all seems to still work, (I just cleaned up the code a bit, added some minimal info above each function and renamed a bunch of variables ($t1, $t2, $h etc just doesn't cut it if someone else is looking at the code :P )

I had a problem with @xrxca's fantastic MultiMon.au3, commented above, with my Windows 10 64-bit configuration. I have four displays, of which only two are the same size. My PC's BIOS displays boot messages on the left monitor, but Windows thinks that it's monitor #2, so I have my Display Settings like the attachment shows ( [2] [1] [3] [4] ).

I had to add a few lines to MultiMon.au3 to show the monitors in the correct physical representation, because it was showing Display 2 (primary display) as the 4th hMonitor instead of the 1st. I put an _ArraySort in _GetMonitors() to fix this (at least on my system). I also added a line to the example _ShowMonitorInfo() to provide the hMonitor value(s). See attached "before after" screenshot for the result.

#include-Once
#include<Array.au3> ;added to fix the display order

Now when I use _CenterOnMonitor, it correctly moves the specified WindowTitle to the specified Monitor number.

_CenterOnMonitor("Notepad", "", 1) ;leftmost
Sleep(2000)
_CenterOnMonitor("Notepad", "", 2) ;middle left
Sleep(2000)
_CenterOnMonitor("Notepad", "", 3) ;middle right
Sleep(2000)
_CenterOnMonitor("Notepad", "", 4) ;rightmost

Edit: I didn't find MultiMon.au3 anywhere in the AutoIt Examples pages to follow up with my 2 cents, so I stuck it here.
