Hi,

Is it possible to determine the type of computer on which my application is running - PC or laptop?
If it is a PC, then you can determine the tim of the monitor - sensor or not?

you can use WMI and Win32_DesktopMonitor/MonitorType to find out if MonitorType = LCD it is a Laptop

Some of the useful functions in FWH:

Code: Select all  Expand view

FW_IsTouchScreen()
FW_IsMousePresent()
FW_IsTabletMode()
ScreenSize( [lInches] ) --> Screen Diameter in MM or Inches

We may try:

Code: Select all  Expand view

if FW_IsTouchScreen() .and. !FW_IsMousePresent() .and. ;
   FW_IsTabletMode() .and. ScreenSize( .t. ) <= 10
? "tablet"
endif
