Trying out the stacked full screen layout and video feed.

I have 2 screens and all regions are stacked on \\.\DISPLAY2. Is it possible to position the viewer screens onto the other screen, \\.\DISPLAY1?

Yes. One of two ways.

1. You can drag them over after having completed the wizard.

2. During the wizard, you can change which monitor is used as the primary. In the properties box, click on the bottom option that says "Use monitors (Collection)". When you click on it, a "..." button appears. Click this button to change what ISBoxer will use as your monitors or how it will use them. In your case, select \\.\DISPLAY1 in the box on the left, and click the Up arrow to move it to the top, then click OK. Every style will use the top one in that list as its 'primary', so when you select Stacked Full Screen they will be on display 1 instead of 2.

More info on the various options during the wizard, including tips like this, can be found on the Window Layout generator (http://isboxer.com/wiki/Window_Layout_generator) page of the ISBoxer wiki

Sorry. Still confused.

My main screen is DISPLAY2 in landscape while the second screen is in portrait. Normally, I position region1 in DISPLAY2 and regions 2 to 5 in DISPLAY1.

I am now trying to set a video feed to display the minimaps of my toons on the main screen. It works but the feed is blurred. Saw from this thread (http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=34782) that the reason is because the other regions 2 to 5 are smaller than region 1. So now, I stacked regions 2 to 5 into DISPLAY2 but instead of showing them as overlays in to the main screen in DISPLAY2, can I shift them to DISPLAY1?

I tried dragging over using the in-game GUI (Ctl-Alt-Shift-G) but that doesn't seem to work.

Hope I am making sense :confused:
