Role required: none

## About this task

The properties of the GetResolution component are common with the properties of the
other Screen components. To configure these properties, see [Properties of the Screen components](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/~m6YKSBePeQks0a0wXeTUA "Learn about the properties of the Screen components in RPA Desktop Design Studio.").

## Procedure

1. In the Toolbox pane, navigate to UtilitiesScreen.
2. Drag the GetResolution component to the Design surface.
3. **Optional:** Connect the data and control ports of the GetResolution component to the corresponding ports of the other components as described in the following table.

## Display the current screen resolution in a message box {#use-utilities-screen-getresolution__example_y5w_pyr_c5b}

The GetResolution component passes the current screen resolution through the Return
Data Out port to the Show component. The Show component takes the resolution through
its Message Data In port and is displayed in a message box.
