See the screenRect, or perhaps more helpfully, the windowBoundingRect.

Hello FourthWorld, i'v checked screenRect but i dont think it helps because i need my stack to be on the side of the screen on different resolutions, with the screenRect i can get the result i want but if the res changes everything is messed up

I believe the desktopChanged message may help with that.
