+
+
+The TQDesktopWidget class provides access to screen information on multi-head systems.
+<p>
+
+<p> Systems with more than one graphics card and monitor can manage the
+physical screen space available either as multiple desktops, or as a
+large virtual desktop, which usually has the size of the bounding
+rectangle of all the screens (see <a href="#isVirtualDesktop">isVirtualDesktop</a>()). For an
+application, one of the available screens is the primary screen, i.e.
+the screen where the main widget resides (see <a href="#primaryScreen">primaryScreen</a>()). All
+windows opened in the context of the application must be
+constrained to the boundaries of the primary screen; for example,
+it would be inconvenient if a dialog box popped up on a different
+screen, or split over two screens.
+<p> The TQDesktopWidget provides information about the geometry of the
+available screens with <a href="#screenGeometry">screenGeometry</a>(). The number of screens
+available is returned by <a href="#numScreens">numScreens</a>(). The screen number that a
+particular point or widget is located in is returned by
+<a href="#screenNumber">screenNumber</a>().
+<p> Widgets provided by TQt use this class, for example, to place
+tooltips, menus and dialog boxes according to the parent or
+application widget.
+<p> Applications can use this class to save window positions, or to place
+child widgets on one screen.
+<p> <center><img src="qdesktopwidget.png" alt="Managing Multiple Screens"></center>
+<p> In the illustration above, Application One's primary screen is
+screen 0, and App Two's primary screen is screen 1.

+<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQDesktopWidget"></a>TQDesktopWidget::TQDesktopWidget ()
+</h3>
+Creates the desktop widget.
+<p> If the system supports a virtual desktop, this widget will have
+the size of the virtual desktop; otherwise this widget will have
+the size of the primary screen.
+<p> Instead of using TQDesktopWidget directly, use
+<a href="ntqapplication.html#desktop">TQApplication::desktop</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQDesktopWidget"></a>TQDesktopWidget::~TQDesktopWidget ()
+</h3>
+Destroy the object and free allocated resources.
+
+<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="ntqrect.html">TQRect</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="availableGeometry"></a>TQDesktopWidget::availableGeometry ( int&nbsp;screen = -1 ) const
+</h3>
+Returns the available geometry of the screen with index <em>screen</em>. What
+is available will be subrect of <a href="#screenGeometry">screenGeometry</a>() based on what the
+platform decides is available (for example excludes the Dock and Menubar
+on Mac OS X, or the taskbar on Windows).
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#screenNumber">screenNumber</a>() and <a href="#screenGeometry">screenGeometry</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="ntqrect.html">TQRect</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="availableGeometry-2"></a>TQDesktopWidget::availableGeometry ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget ) const
+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Returns the available geometry of the screen which contains <em>widget</em>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#screenGeometry">screenGeometry</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="ntqrect.html">TQRect</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="availableGeometry-3"></a>TQDesktopWidget::availableGeometry ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqpoint.html">TQPoint</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;p ) const
+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Returns the available geometry of the screen which contains <em>p</em>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#screenGeometry">screenGeometry</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isVirtualDesktop"></a>TQDesktopWidget::isVirtualDesktop () const
+</h3>
+Returns TRUE if the system manages the available screens in a
+virtual desktop; otherwise returns FALSE.
+<p> For virtual desktops, <a href="#screen">screen</a>() will always return the same widget.
+The size of the virtual desktop is the size of this desktop
+widget.
+
+<h3 class=fn>int <a name="numScreens"></a>TQDesktopWidget::numScreens () const
+</h3>
+Returns the number of available screens.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#primaryScreen">primaryScreen</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>int <a name="primaryScreen"></a>TQDesktopWidget::primaryScreen () const
+</h3>
+Returns the index of the primary screen.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#numScreens">numScreens</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="resized"></a>TQDesktopWidget::resized ( int&nbsp;screen )<tt> [signal]</tt>
+</h3>
+This signal is emitted when the size of <em>screen</em> changes.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;* <a name="screen"></a>TQDesktopWidget::screen ( int&nbsp;screen = -1 )
+</h3>
+Returns a widget that represents the screen with index <em>screen</em>.
+This widget can be used to draw directly on the desktop, using an
+unclipped painter like this:
+<p> <pre>
+ <a href="ntqpainter.html">TQPainter</a> paint( TQApplication::<a href="ntqapplication.html#desktop">desktop</a>()-&gt;screen( 0 ), TRUE );
+ paint.draw...
+ ...
+ paint.<a href="ntqpainter.html#end">end</a>();
+ </pre>
+
+<p> If the system uses a virtual desktop, the returned widget will
+have the geometry of the entire virtual desktop i.e. bounding
+every <em>screen</em>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#primaryScreen">primaryScreen</a>(), <a href="#numScreens">numScreens</a>(), and <a href="#isVirtualDesktop">isVirtualDesktop</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="ntqrect.html">TQRect</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="screenGeometry"></a>TQDesktopWidget::screenGeometry ( int&nbsp;screen = -1 ) const
+</h3>
+Returns the geometry of the screen with index <em>screen</em>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#screenNumber">screenNumber</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="ntqrect.html">TQRect</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="screenGeometry-2"></a>TQDesktopWidget::screenGeometry ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget ) const
+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Returns the geometry of the screen which contains <em>widget</em>.
+
+<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="ntqrect.html">TQRect</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="screenGeometry-3"></a>TQDesktopWidget::screenGeometry ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqpoint.html">TQPoint</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;p ) const
+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Returns the geometry of the screen which contains <em>p</em>.
+
+<h3 class=fn>int <a name="screenNumber"></a>TQDesktopWidget::screenNumber ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget = 0 ) const
+</h3>
+Returns the index of the screen that contains the largest
+part of <em>widget</em>, or -1 if the widget not on a screen.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#primaryScreen">primaryScreen</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>int <a name="screenNumber-2"></a>TQDesktopWidget::screenNumber ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqpoint.html">TQPoint</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;point ) const
+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Returns the index of the screen that contains <em>point</em>, or -1 if
+no screen contains the point.
