Hi @krishna_r,

To my knowledge the System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea property returns a System.Drawing.Rectangle object that represents the working area of the primary monitor. The working area is the part of the screen that is available for application windows, and it excludes the taskbar and other docked windows. Based on variety of factors the resolution of working area (and the whole display) can change based on the scaling.

I can’t say for sure why it is happening on your machine. I suggest trying with following snippets:

System.Windows.Forms.Screen.FromControl(new Control).WorkingArea

System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height
System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width

Try with these and let me know if it works for you!

Regards.

Hi @BogdanTod

I have tried the above syntax, Bounds returns the screen dimensions regardless of the scale percentage and for working area.width result the same value as Bounds

Hello @krishna_r
Try your code by changing the Display resolution value.
I think, increasing the Scale value does not affect the Width much more.

@krishna_r , It will display the Current Screen size. If you change the Screensize in Settings, it will show the respective screen size./ Try the code by changing the screen resolutions in Display Setiings

Refer this post Working screen area values after increasing the screen size - #5 by krishna_r

here resolution is 1920 x 1080 with 100% scale this case the working screen scenario is 1920 x 1040
when scale is 125% working screen is 1536 x 864
when scale is 150% working screen is 1280 x 720
this is the result im expecting with UiPath
try below html with diffrerent scale

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<h1>The Window Screen Object</h1>
<h2>Screen Properties</h2>

<div id="demo"></div>

<script>
let text = "Total width/height: " + screen.width + "*" + screen.height + "<br>" +
"Available width/height: " + screen.availWidth + "*" + screen.availHeight + "<br>" +
"Color depth: " + screen.colorDepth + "<br>" +
"Color resolution: " + screen.pixelDepth;

document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = text;
</script>

</body>
</html>

@krishna_r
Based on your System resolution, the Height may changes while increasing the Scale

yes, but there is no change in width, the result is always max width irrespective of the scale percentage
you will find the difference in the html

@krishna_r , Applologies, The Width remains the same though the height will change in the Working area. Its changes based on your Primary resolutions.

but my requirement is the width
