With "display-monitor-attributes-list" I get

(((geometry 1080 1152 1366 768) (workarea 1080 1152 1311 768) (mm-size 344 194) 
(frames #<frame *scratch* 0x16f3510> #<frame Speedbar 0x2b84190>) 
(source . "Gdk")) ((geometry 0 0 1080 1920) (workarea 0 0 1080 1920) 
(mm-size 477 268) (frames) (source . "Gdk")))

But still nobody has told me what frame should I use for the initial frame 
(seems it
is usually *scratch*).  What input should frame be in the command 
"(frame-outer-width frame)".
