How to grab current user display information?

Question

I'm looking for something similar to the output of following the powershell script:

Get-WmiObject Win32_VideoController | Select SystemName, CurrentHorizontalResolution, CurrentVerticalResolution

Which outputs:

SystemName CurrentHorizontalResolution CurrentVerticalResolution
---------- --------------------------- -------------------------
PC_NAME    3840                      2160

Any help or guidance will be appreciated.

Answer 1

you can use System.Management library

using System;
using System.Management;

namespace VideoControllerInfo
{
   class Program
   {
       static void Main(string[] args)
       {
           try
           {
               var searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT SystemName, CurrentHorizontalResolution, CurrentVerticalResolution FROM Win32_VideoController");

               foreach (ManagementObject queryObj in searcher.Get())
               {
                   Console.WriteLine("SystemName: {0}", queryObj["SystemName"]);
                   Console.WriteLine("CurrentHorizontalResolution: {0}", queryObj["CurrentHorizontalResolution"]);
                   Console.WriteLine("CurrentVerticalResolution: {0}", queryObj["CurrentVerticalResolution"]);
                   Console.WriteLine();
               }
           }
           catch (ManagementException e)
           {
               Console.WriteLine("An error occurred while querying WMI: " + e.Message);
           }
       }
   }
  }
