GetSystemMetrics
The GetSystemMetrics function retrieves various system metrics (widths and heights of display elements) and system configuration settings. All dimensions retrieved by GetSystemMetrics are in pixels.
int GetSystemMetrics(
int nIndex // system metric or configuration setting to retrieve
);
Parameters
nIndex
Specifies the system metric or configuration setting to retrieve. All SM_CX* values are widths. All SM_CY* values are heights. The following values are defined. Value Meaning
SM_ARRANGE Flags specifying how the system arranged minimized windows. For more information about minimized windows, see the following Remarks section.
SM_CLEANBOOT Value that specifies how the system was started:
0 Normal boot
1 Fail-safe boot
2 Fail-safe with network boot
Fail-safe boot (also called SafeBoot) bypasses the user's startup files.
SM_CMONITORS Windows NT 5.0 and later; Windows 98 and later: Number of display monitors on the desktop.
SM_CMOUSEBUTTONS Number of buttons on mouse, or zero if no mouse is installed.
SM_CXBORDER,
SM_CYBORDER Width and height, in pixels, of a window border. This is equivalent to the SM_CXEDGE value for windows with the 3-D look.
SM_CXCURSOR,
SM_CYCURSOR Width and height, in pixels, of a cursor. The system cannot create cursors of other sizes.
SM_CXDLGFRAME,
SM_CYDLGFRAME Same as SM_CXFIXEDFRAME and SM_CYFIXEDFRAME.
SM_CXDOUBLECLK,
SM_CYDOUBLECLK Width and height, in pixels, of the rectangle around the location of a first click in a double-click sequence. The second click must occur within this rectangle for the system to consider the two clicks a double-click. (The two clicks must also occur within a specified time.)
SM_CXDRAG,
SM_CYDRAG Width and height, in pixels, of a rectangle centered on a drag point to allow for limited movement of the mouse pointer before a drag operation begins. This allows the user to click and release the mouse button easily without unintentionally starting a drag operation.
SM_CXEDGE,
SM_CYEDGE Dimensions, in pixels, of a 3-D border. These are the 3-D counterparts of SM_CXBORDER and SM_CYBORDER.
SM_CXFIXEDFRAME,
SM_CYFIXEDFRAME Thickness, in pixels, of the frame around the perimeter of a window that has a caption but is not sizable. SM_CXFIXEDFRAME is the width of the horizontal border and SM_CYFIXEDFRAME is the height of the vertical border.
Same as SM_CXDLGFRAME and SM_CYDLGFRAME.
SM_CXFRAME,
SM_CYFRAME Same as SM_CXSIZEFRAME and SM_CYSIZEFRAME.
SM_CXFULLSCREEN, SM_CYFULLSCREEN Width and height of the client area for a full-screen window on the primary display monitor. To get the coordinates of the portion of the screen not obscured by the system taskbar or by application desktop toolbars, call the SystemParametersInfo function with the SPI_GETWORKAREA value.
SM_CXHSCROLL, SM_CYHSCROLL Width, in pixels, of the arrow bitmap on a horizontal scroll bar; and height, in pixels, of a horizontal scroll bar.
SM_CXHTHUMB Width, in pixels, of the thumb box in a horizontal scroll bar.
SM_CXICON,
SM_CYICON The default width and height, in pixels, of an icon. TheLoadIcon function can load only icons of these dimensions.
SM_CXICONSPACING, SM_CYICONSPACING Dimensions, in pixels, of a grid cell for items in large icon view. Each item fits into a rectangle of this size when arranged. These values are always greater than or equal to SM_CXICON and SM_CYICON.
SM_CXMAXIMIZED,
SM_CYMAXIMIZED Default dimensions, in pixels, of a maximized top-level window on the primary display monitor.
SM_CXMAXTRACK,
SM_CYMAXTRACK Default maximum dimensions, in pixels, of a window that has a caption and sizing borders. This metric refers to the entire desktop. The user cannot drag the window frame to a size larger than these dimensions. A window can override these values by processing the WM_GETMINMAXINFO message.
SM_CXMENUCHECK,
SM_CYMENUCHECK Dimensions, in pixels, of the default menu check-mark bitmap.
SM_CXMENUSIZE,
SM_CYMENUSIZE Dimensions, in pixels, of menu bar buttons, such as the child window close button used in the multiple document interface.
SM_CXMIN,
SM_CYMIN Minimum width and height, in pixels, of a window.
SM_CXMINIMIZED,
SM_CYMINIMIZED Dimensions, in pixels, of a normal minimized window.
SM_CXMINSPACING
SM_CYMINSPACING Dimensions, in pixels, of a grid cell for minimized windows. Each minimized window fits into a rectangle this size when arranged. These values are always greater than or equal to SM_CXMINIMIZED and SM_CYMINIMIZED.
SM_CXMINTRACK, SM_CYMINTRACK Minimum tracking width and height, in pixels, of a window. The user cannot drag the window frame to a size smaller than these dimensions. A window can override these values by processing the WM_GETMINMAXINFO message.
SM_CXSCREEN,
SM_CYSCREEN Width and height, in pixels, of the screen of the primary display monitor. These are the same values you obtain by callingGetDeviceCaps(hdcPrimaryMonitor, HORZRES/VERTRES).
SM_CXSIZE,
SM_CYSIZE Width and height, in pixels, of a button in a window's caption or title bar.
SM_CXSIZEFRAME,
SM_CYSIZEFRAME Thickness, in pixels, of the sizing border around the perimeter of a window that can be resized. SM_CXSIZEFRAME is the width of the horizontal border, and SM_CYSIZEFRAME is the height of the vertical border.
Same as SM_CXFRAME and SM_CYFRAME.
SM_CXSMICON,
SM_CYSMICON Recommended dimensions, in pixels, of a small icon. Small icons typically appear in window captions and in small icon view.
SM_CXSMSIZE
SM_CYSMSIZE Dimensions, in pixels, of small caption buttons.
SM_CXVIRTUALSCREEN, SM_CYVIRTUALSCREEN Windows NT 5.0 and later; Windows 98 and later: Width and height, in pixels, of the virtual screen. The virtual screen is the bounding rectangle of all display monitors. The SM_XVIRTUALSCREEN, SM_YVIRTUALSCREEN metrics are the coordinates of the top left corner of the virtual screen.
SM_CXVSCROLL, SM_CYVSCROLL Width, in pixels, of a vertical scroll bar; and height, in pixels, of the arrow bitmap on a vertical scroll bar.

SM_SECURE TRUE if security is present; FALSE otherwise.
SM_SAMEDISPLAYFORMAT Windows NT 5.0 and later; Windows 98 and later: TRUE if all the display monitors have the same color format, FALSE otherwise. Note that two displays can have the same bit depth, but different color formats. For example, the red, green, and blue pixels can be encoded with different numbers of bits, or those bits can be located in different places in a pixel's color value.
SM_SHOWSOUNDS TRUE or nonzero if the user requires an application to present information visually in situations where it would otherwise present the information only in audible form; FALSE, or zero, otherwise.
SM_SLOWMACHINE TRUE if the computer has a low-end (slow) processor; FALSE otherwise.
