Re: GetMonitorFromWindow

No, you should not implement it. Macintosh HIG are different than for Windows. Windows does a lot of bad, brain-dead stuff. Just because it's done on Windows doesn't mean that is the right way to do it on the Mac. As a *professional developer* it is your job to tell your client when he/she is wrong.

Just because some people drink too much and crash their cars into telephone poles doesn't mean I should do the same.

windows product(where this functionity is available). So i should
implement it.

If APIs available, Could you please provide those

There is, but you really shouldn't be doing what you're trying to do
unless you have an extremely good reason. It's perfectly OK for a user
to have a window straddle two screens.
