No, because that phrase can mean many different things. Do you mean the backlight? Do you mean the black screensaver? Do you mean standby or suspend? Some of those things can be detected, some cannot. -- Tim Roberts, timr(a)probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc.

You must not have read what I said. Your question doesn't mean anything. Laptops don't have monitors. You need to figure out EXACTLY what you want to know. -- Tim Roberts, timr(a)probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc.

Let me explain ... Right click->properties->screen saver tab->Power Button Power Schemes for laptops... There is one option..turn off monitor after given time. I want to capture that event..and want to know API call which will give me value if display is ON/OFF. |
