I need to get the screen's PPI

[Academia]

I need to be able to get the screen's PPI.
I know I can do it using GetDeviceCaps but is there a class that I can use
instead?


Thanks

You can calculate yourself doing a simple aritmetic operation:

I mean a class that does the equivalent of what GetDeviceCaps does.

I mean a class that does the equivalent of what GetDeviceCaps does.

'System.Drawing.Graphics.{DpiX, DpiY}'.

I assume that if I do me.creategraphics within a usercontrol's code, it will
be the screen's DpiX and DpiY that I'll get.

Right?


Thanks for the info - exactly what I needed.
