Description
The Multi-Screen Window Placement spec suggests enhancements for supporting multi-screen devices. I would greatly appreciate feedback and help regarding integrating some of that work in the CSSOM-View Module. Here are some pertinent high-level proposals in the spec:
- Extend the Screen interface with an
onchangeEventHandler andisExtendedboolean. - Refine attribute and method definitions for
Window.screenX|Left|Y|TopandWindow.moveTo|By(). - Refine concepts to define web-exposed screen information for devices with multiple screens.
- Define a
Window.getScreenDetails()method andScreenDetailsandScreenDetailedinterfaces to supply multi-screen information.
I invite anyone to discuss this topic in a tentative W3C TPAC 2022 breakout session, and I will file similar issues on HTML and Fullscreen specs soon. Thank you!

Research direction
Start by reading the Multi-Screen Window Placement specification alongside the CSSOM-View Module sections for Screen, Window.screenX|Left|Y|Top, and Window.moveTo|By(). Compare the proposed Screen extensions, screen-information concepts, getScreenDetails(), ScreenDetails, and ScreenDetailed interfaces. Done would require an agreed CSSOM-View integration scope and corresponding specification changes.
