Gdk_Monitor

Gdk_Monitor

[ldries46]

In the latest version of Gtkada for Windows on Adacore I cannot find 
Gdk_Monitor. It seems that Gdk_Monitor is the only part in Gtk+ where it 
is still possible to get the size in pixels of the monitor. All other 
places where this can be done ar depreciated from version 3.22. Is there 
somewhere a version of Gtkada that includes Gdk_Monitoring.
If not is there somewhere within the different operating systems where I 
can find these parameters. I want a program that automatically adapts to 
the screen size and doe not work with fullscreen windows

I don't mess with GTK much, but a quick google search pointed me to 
the gdk_screen_XXXX functions.  I searched AdaCore's current 
GtkAda repository for "gdk_screen" and it pointed me to the 
Gdk.Screen package in the generated folder.  Have you tried 
them?  I didn't see any deprecation remarks (though I didn't dig deep).

Nevermind.  I did find a document that listed them as deprecated.

Alternative option:  You should try opening an issue on their github
repo for GtkAda.  They responded to mine.  They might be able to
suggest a workaround.  Otherwise, you might be stuck doing your own
custom bindings to the monitor functions.
