2.309 .screen_width[integer]

With this attribute of the setup object the width of screen I in pixels can be queried.

The indexed attribute is available only for multiscreen dialogs (Motif only) or in a multi-monitor environment (Windows only), where the index can be in the valid range from 1 to setup.screencount.

The value is dynamic in a multi-monitor environment under Windows, since you can add or remove monitors at any time.
