Screen Resolution

Hi all,

I have a problem using get(0,'screensize') command. I use Matlab 2010b on MAC.

My screen size is 2560x1440 pixel. I executed the get(0,'screensize') command and the result is a vector, [1 1 2560 1418].

Then I changed the screen resolution to 800x600, and executed the same command, get(0,'screensize'). The result is a vector of [1 -839 2560 1418] instead of [1 1 800 600].

Apparently there is something weird with get(0,'screensize') command. Does anybody has an explanation to this?

Thanks in advance. Yavuz

To check: you exited MATLAB before changing the screen size?

You may be better off with

get(0, 'MonitorPositions');

Then again, MATLAB has difficulties getting the monitor and screen sizes.
