ClientDisplayInformation object is not working.
Timofey please give me a solution to fix this problem.

Hello, Marius Gidu.

Please provide more details: what you are trying to do and which error message do you receive?

I`m trying to get DPI, Width and Height of the mobile device.

Variable is not defined (ClientDisplayInformation) this is the error.

This feature was added in 1C:Enterprise platform 8.3.6. Are you sure you are using this version?

I`m using 1C:Enterprise 8.3 (8.3.6.2100).

I suppose you are trying to use it in the incorrect way. This is the type, returned by the GetClientDisplaysInformation() function.

Please see the following example:

   ClientDisplaysInformation = GetClientDisplaysInformation();
   For Each CurClientDisplaysInformation In ClientDisplaysInformation Do
      Message(CurClientDisplaysInformation.DPI)
   EndDo;

Thanks. But the documentation offered by this site and syntax assistant of the platform are both wrong. Just read and you will see.

On site: What's new in mobile platform
Window management. The option to handle the change of mobile device display parameters is now available.
The OnChangeDisplaySettings event handler is implemented. The event occurs when the client application display parameters are changed.
The Width and Height properties of the ClientDisplayInformation object store the actual values (which depend on the screen orientation).
This feature was not provided.
The platform could not detect the changes of display parameters.
The Width and Height properties of the ClientDisplayInformation object stored constant (canonical) values.
You can handle the display size changes caused by mobile device orientation changes or by connecting the mobile device to external displays. You can create applications with better usability.

In syntax assistant:

ClientDisplayInformation

DPI
Height
Width

Description:

ClientDisplayInformation
DPI
Usage:

Read only.
Description:

Contains the display resolution (DPI).

Availability:

Thin client, web-client, server, thick client, external connection, Mobile application (client), Mobile application (server).

etc

And what do you think is wrong here?

In the description of the GetClientDisplaysInformation() function it is said that it returns an array where elements have ClientDisplayInformation type. This is what I have demonstrated in the example: traversing the array and printing the property of its items.

You don't need to create ClientDisplayInformation object, you have it returned by the function.

Sorry i didn`t see in syntax assistant GetClientDisplaysInformation() function, but now i found it and i tried the method you provided and it works.

Thanks a lot.
