Get(WindowContentWidth)

Category: Get

Syntax: Get ( WindowContentWidth )

Parameters: none

Description: Returns the width, in pixels, of the content area of the current window. The content area is the area inside a window's frame, and doesn't include the title bar, scroll bars, or the status area.

Examples:

Get(WindowContentWidth)

on the Mac OS, returns 782 when the current window width is 800 and the status area is not showing.

Comments:

The relationship of the content area dimensions to the overall window dimensions are different on each platform.

For a thorough discussion on the differences, see the discussion of window management techniques in Chapter 15, "Advanced Scripting," p. 421 .
