displayWidth

A Number variable that stores the width of the screen display.

displayWidth is useful for running full-screen programs. Its value depends on the current pixelDensity().

Note: The actual screen width can be computed as displayWidth * pixelDensity().

Examples

function setup()
  -- Set the canvas' width and height
  -- using the display's dimensions.
  size(displayWidth, displayHeight)

  background(200)

  describe('A gray canvas that is the same size as the display.')
end
