 Getting the size of the desktop.


How do I find the size of the Desktop minus the taskbar?   

    Call the Windows API function SystemParametersInfo() passing the SPI_GETWORKAREA parameter along with the address of the rectangle structure to receive the coordinates. Example:

    procedure TForm .Button Click(Sender: TObject);
    var
      r : TRect;
    begin
      SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETWORKAREA,
                           0,
                           @r,
                           0);
      Memo .Lines.Add(IntToStr(r.Top));
      Memo .Lines.Add(IntToStr(r.Left));
      Memo .Lines.Add(IntToStr(r.Bottom));
      Memo .Lines.Add(IntToStr(r.Right));
    end;
