I have a Java app that launches, creates a GUI and works great. If the user changes the screen resolution (switches from 1440x900 to 1280x768), I\'d like to be able to list

    I don't think that Java can do this by itself. You would have to have a "hook" into the operating system that detects this change and may wish to consider using JNA, JNI, or a separate utility such as perhaps Sigar that reports to your Java program. Out of curiosity, why do you wish to do this? Is it for a game you're making or so that you can re-size a GUI application?

    Here is my suggestion for this problem,

    1. Every swing object can implement an interface called java.awt.event.ComponentListener.
    2. One of its method is componentResized(ComponentEvent e).
    3. Your main application frame should implement this interface and override the resize event method. This is how you listen to the resize event, Checkout this link . I hope this helps you.

    You can create a global PAINT listener to detect screen resize.

    // screen resize listener
        Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().addAWTEventListener(new AWTEventListener() {
    
            @Override
            public void eventDispatched(AWTEvent event) {
    // take a look at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10123735/get-effective-screen-size-from-java
                Rectangle newSize = getEffectiveScreenSize(); 
                if (newSize.width != windowSize.width || newSize.height != windowSize.height)
                    resize();
    
            }
        }, AWTEvent.PAINT_EVENT_MASK);

    This post is old, but: - polling the screen size once every second will not have any impact on performance - when the screen is resized, every window should receive a repaint() call (you need to test this for the OSs you target)

    Apart from Hovercrafts's suggestion you might consider a background thread that checks the current screen resolution using Toolkit.getScreenSize().

    You would need to test this to find out how big the performance impact of that thread to the system is. How often it checks for changes depends on your requirements (how quick your application needs to react to the change)
