The IDLsysMonitorInfo::GetRectangles function method retrieves the monitor coordinate rectangles.
Result = Obj->[IDLsysMonitorInfo::]GetRectangles( [, /EXCLUDE_TASKBAR])
Returns the monitors’ coordinate rectangles. A coordinate rectangle refers to a 4-element array of the form [x,y,w,h], where x and y are the origin at the upper-left corner of the rectangle and where w and h are the width and height of the rectangle.
There is one row returned in the array for each monitor, each column in the array contains a value for a component of each monitor (see Table 10-3 for the array columns).
