SDL_GetDesktopDisplayMode

Get information about the desktop's display mode.

Syntax

int SDL_GetDesktopDisplayMode(int displayIndex, SDL_DisplayMode * mode);

Function Parameters

displayIndex the index of the display to query
mode an SDL_DisplayMode structure filled in with the current display mode

Return Value

Returns 0 on success or a negative error code on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

Remarks

There's a difference between this function and SDL_GetCurrentDisplayMode() when SDL runs fullscreen and has changed the resolution. In that case this function will return the previous native display mode, and not the current display mode.

Version

This function is available since SDL 2.0.0.
