# CGDisplayIsBuiltin(_:)

Returns a Boolean value indicating whether a display is built-in, such as the internal display in portable systems.

## Declaration

```swift
func CGDisplayIsBuiltin(_ display: CGDirectDisplayID) -> boolean_t
```

## Parameters

- `display`: The identifier of the display to be accessed.

## Return Value

Return Value If true, the specified display is considered to be a built-in display; otherwise, false.

## Discussion

Discussion Portable systems typically identify the internal LCD panel as a built-in display. Note that it is possible and reasonable for a system to have no displays marked as built-in. For example, a portable system running with the lid closed may report no built-in displays.
