token:Screen

Table of Contents

**This is an old revision of the document!**

The %Screen% and %ScreenVisible% tokens return the frame or visible frame of the specified screen. It takes a parameter indicating which screen to use.

The parameter may be:

  • Main or 0: the main screen (the defined one with the menu bar on it, although this is less apparent now that the menu bar is on all monitors).
  • Second: the left most screen that is not the Main screen.
  • Third: the left most screen that is not the Main or Second screen.
  • Internal: the left most internal screen.
  • External: the left most external screen.
  • Front: the left most screen containing (most of) the front window.
  • Back: the left most screen that is not the Front screen.
  • Back2: the left most screen that is not the Front or Back screen.
  • Mouse: the left most screen containing the mouse cursor.
  • Positive Number: the indexed screen from left to right.
  • Negative Number: the indexed screen from right to left.

So for example, %ScreenVisible%Main% gives the visible frame of the main screen.

Like all coordinates in Keyboard Maestro, the frames are from the top left corner of the main screen.
