Tkinter provides some methods with the help of which we can get the current screen height and width.
Following methods can be used to decide height and width :
winfo_screenheight() // Returns screen height in pixels winfo_screenmmheight() // Returns screen height in mm winfo_screenwidth() // Returns screen width in pixels winfo_screenmmwidth() // Returns screen width in mm
Code #1: Getting height and width in pixels.
# importing tkinter module
from tkinter import * from tkinter.ttk import *
# creating tkinter window
root = Tk()
# getting screen's height in pixels
height = root.winfo_screenheight()
# getting screen's width in pixels
width = root.winfo_screenwidth()
print("\n width x height = %d x %d (in pixels)\n" %(width, height))
# infinite loop
mainloop()
Output:
Code #2: Getting height and width in mm.
# importing tkinter module
from tkinter import * from tkinter.ttk import *
# creating tkinter window
root = Tk()
# getting screen's height in mm
height = root.winfo_screenmmheight()
# getting screen's width in mm
width = root.winfo_screenmmwidth()
print("\n width x height = %d x %d (in mm)\n" %(width, height))
# infinite loop
mainloop()
Output:
