Alternative for Screen.width and Screen.height

Straightforward, I would like something that gives me the same result from Screen.width and Screen.height without using Screen.

 

I suppose you could have a ui component that stretches across the height and width and then access it's recttransform to get the width and height of the rect. I believe that would give the same numbers, but not sure why you'd want that over the Screen.width/.height

 

Why are you avoiding Screen?

 

the guy that is working with me created a script called Screen and now unity complains that Screen.width do not exist, so I got curious if there was another simple way (instead of UnityEngine.Screen.width)

 

It's been answered in the other post now. Use Display https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Display.html.

 

Just put that guys Screen class in a namespace. Then make sure to tell them to not make conflicting names without also putting them in a namespace. You should be able to use the API its there for easy of use.

 

Yep, just use a namespace...or, use Unity's namespace.

So you could do
int screenWIdth = UnityEngine.Screen.width; For example to access Unity's Screen vs the one created.

 

You could also use an using alias to remap a namespace to whatever you prefer:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. using UnityScreen = UnityEngine.Screen;
3.  
4. public class Test : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.     private void Update()
7.     {
8.         Debug.Log("Width = " + UnityScreen.width);
9.     }
10. }
11.  

Of course, I'd still go yell at the other guy for not putting his code into a namespace.

Or threaten him with creating your own UnityEngine class and let them sort out the namespace mess that'd create.
