//This will return a string for the resolution
Output = screen.width + "x" + screen.height

Hello,

 

Seems like it is not supported in 9.3 as per the support ticket;

jensc_0-1679315695360.png

There doesn't seem to be any documentation in the PTC Help Center that this has been deprecated though.

I did try some of the "TW" functions to see if I could find something similar, but wasn't able to. I thought that perhaps "TW.Runtime.Workspace.Mashups.Current.UI" would have the screen size in its return.

 

Perhaps someone else has a good workaround for this.

 

Regards,

Jens

Hello,

 

In 9.3 this won't be possible without implementing a custom extension. Usually, it's possible to work around the need for getting the screen resolution. What is your scenario, why do you need it?

Hello @Constantine ,

I want to set CellWidthField of the collection widget by screen resolution.

 

Scenario is

  • get client screen resolution (1920,1366) and send to service
  • service output with data and width
  • CellWidthField select width from output service

And i tried using CSS to set MashupWidth but still can't set width.

 

Thank you for your help

If you want the collection cell to be the whole width of the container, not matter the width, set these settings like this:

View: Flow,

MashupWidth: 9999

FlowLayoutGravity: Expand

 

The Expand on the MashupWidth will act as a minimum width OR if it's something huge like 9999 it will span the whole width of the container.

 

Hope it helpes,

Hello,

 

Just wanted to post an update here as I just realized I missed the most obvious thing in the PTC help center link from my previous post which clearly states that the following should be supported.

But I can at least not get the "TW.screen.width/TW.screen.height" to work.

Perhaps it would be good to open a support ticket for this.

 

Regards,

Jens
