ResolutionChanger

ResolutionChanger is a simple WPF application for changing the display resolution of your monitors. It utilizes Windows API functions to enumerate display devices and settings, allowing users to select and apply different resolutions to their displays.

Features

  • Enumerates and lists all connected display devices.
  • Retrieves and displays all available resolutions for each display.
  • Allows users to change the resolution of a selected display.
  • Saves the selected resolution as the default setting for the display.

Usage

  1. Launch the Application: Open the ResolutionChanger application.
  2. Select a Display: Choose the display you want to change the resolution for from the DisplaysComboBox.
  3. Select a Resolution: Pick the desired resolution from the ResolutionsComboBox.
  4. Apply Changes: Click the Save button to apply the selected resolution to the display.

Code Overview

WinAPI Integration

The application uses several WinAPI functions to interact with display settings:

  • ChangeDisplaySettingsEx: Changes the settings of the specified display device to the specified graphics mode.
  • EnumDisplaySettings: Retrieves information about one of the graphics modes for a display device.
  • EnumDisplayDevices: Obtains information about the display devices in the current session.

Structs and Enums

  • DISPLAY_DEVICE: Contains information about the display device.
  • DEVMODE: Contains information about the initialization and environment of a printer or a display device.
  • DisplayDeviceStateFlags: Flags that define the state of a display device.
