how to get screen width and screen height in a composable function?

The simplest way is to use `ContextAmbient`  for getting a `Context`  and after it we can use `DisplayMetrics` .

Code:
```val displayMetrics = DisplayMetrics()
(ContextAmbient.current as Activity)
    .windowManager
    .defaultDisplay
    .getMetrics(displayMetrics)

val widthPx = displayMetrics.widthPixels
val heightPx = displayMetrics.heightPixels```

Is that really what you want, or are you just trying to figure out how much space your composable has to take up?

<@U011E3QFR5L> a handy helper here:
```@Composable
fun Dp.toPx(): Px = with(DensityAmbient.current) {
    return@toPx this@toPx.toPx()
}```
for an easier time using in progress apis that may require px :slightly_smiling_face: just make sure you actually do need to use px though

<@UEJCGUJCA> - actually i wanted to display video and resize its width to be the same as screen width and maintaining its aspect ratio. below is my code.

I am not sure is there another way to do it.
