# SDL_RenderGetLogicalSize

Get device independent resolution for rendering.

## Header File

Defined in [SDL_render.h](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/blob/SDL2/include/SDL_render.h)

## Syntax

```c
void SDL_RenderGetLogicalSize(SDL_Renderer * renderer, int *w, int *h);
```

## Function Parameters

|                                |              |                                      |
| ------------------------------ | ------------ | ------------------------------------ |
| [SDL_Renderer](SDL_Renderer) * | **renderer** | a rendering context.                 |
| int *                          | **w**        | an int to be filled with the width.  |
| int *                          | **h**        | an int to be filled with the height. |

## Remarks

When using the main rendering target (eg no target texture is set): this
may return 0 for `w` and `h` if the [SDL_Renderer](SDL_Renderer) has never
had its logical size set by
[SDL_RenderSetLogicalSize](SDL_RenderSetLogicalSize)(). Otherwise it
returns the logical width and height.

When using a target texture: Never return 0 for `w` and `h` at first. Then
it returns the logical width and height that are set.

## Version

This function is available since SDL 2.0.0.
