New commands in Turbo Engine will add better support for multiple monitors. The new Display class lets you iterate through all your monitors:
for (int n = 0; n < CountDisplays(); ++n) { auto display = GetDisplay(n); Print(display->GetPosition()); //monitor XY coordinates Print(display->GetSize()); //monitor size Print(display->GetScale()); //DPI scaling }
The CreateWindow() function now takes a parameter for the monitor to create the window on / relative to.
auto display = GetDisplay(0); Vec2 scale = display->GetScale(); auto window = CreateWindow(display, "My Game", 0, 0, 1280.0 * scale.x, 720.0 * scale.y, WINDOW_TITLEBAR | WINDOW_RESIZABLE);
The WINDOW_CENTER style can be used to center the window on one display.
You can use GetDisplay(DISPLAY_PRIMARY) to retrieve the main display. This will be the same as GetDisplay(0) on systems with only one monitor.
