I'm an idiot.

I had looked in the Scripting Additions folder (repeatedly) and never saw it. I now see it.

But I still see no syntax to specify a particular monitor. I can get minimum or maximum depth but not that of a particular monitor. The point is moot however since I've tried a couple of 3rd party Additions and their dictionaries show me how to single out a particular monitor. It's not the ideal solution, but will do while I learn.

I'll give Smile a stronger workout. I tried it briefly but as a Newbie I didn't see what the advantages for me were.

Thanks for the comments.
