Retrieve Viewport Height and Width In Intel XDK

This post is a part 16 of Intel XDK Complete Tutorial post series.

Viewport height and width of the application on same device changes according to the orientation of the app. Therefore we will first need to detect the orientation and then find the height and width of the viewport. Height and width is measured in pixels.

if (intel.xdk.device.orientation == "90" || intel.xdk.device.orientation == "-90")
{
        //landscape
        var w = window.innerWidth
        || document.documentElement.clientWidth
        || document.body.clientWidth;

        var h = window.innerHeight
        || document.documentElement.clientHeight
        || document.body.clientHeight;
}
else
{
        //portrait
        var w = window.innerWidth
        || document.documentElement.clientWidth
        || document.body.clientWidth;

        var h = window.innerHeight
        || document.documentElement.clientHeight
        || document.body.clientHeight;
}

    will be preserved.
    
    Markdown is turned off in code blocks:

To create not a block, but an inline code span, use backticks:

Here is some inline `code`.
