I am working on a project that requires me to get the resolution of the screen of the primary screen. I am using C# .NET 3.5 framework in Windows. For all laptops I am able to get the resolution using these two calls:
string width =Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width.ToString();string height =Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height.ToString();However, this does not work for Surface tablets or high resolution laptops that do auto scaling at all as the calls return a much lower resolution than what is being displayed in the display settings of the tablets. I understand that this has to do with Windows doing special thing related to DPI and scaling the screen accordingly.
However, I am not sure how to programatically retrieve the resolution of the Surface tablets accurately (what ever the display settings are reporting those metrics).
