Ahh, thanks for that. It's working as intended

Despite you saving the width twice this should work

Lol, I've rewritten the line so many times, just a copy + paste error

1>c:\users\kyle\documents\visual studio 2010\projects\turn based game\turn based game\turn based game.cpp(17): error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before '.'
1>c:\users\kyle\documents\visual studio 2010\projects\turn based game\turn based game\turn based game.cpp(17): error C3484: syntax error: expected '->' before the return type

1>c:\users\kyle\documents\visual studio 2010\projects\turn based game\turn based game\turn based game.cpp(113): fatal error C1506: unrecoverable block scoping error

These errors resolve resolve if I include the #include <VideoMode.hpp>

but the include directive itself gives off an error. I've also tried moving the getDesktopResolution before and after the window is created. It makes no difference.

Window / Get User's Resolution

« on: April 08, 2016, 08:55:51 am »

So I want to save the User's resolution into a Vector2i object.

sf::Vector2i screenDimensionsTest(sf::VideoMode.getDesktopMode().width,
sf::VideoMode.getDesktopMode().width);

No errors show, but I get errors upon compiling my code. I'm new to this stuff, could somebody explain? Am I going about this the right way?
