Hey guys,

Does keyclone pip/boob/maximizer work when your system has 2 monitors?

My 30" monitor broke and HP says it'll be 2 months before they have them in stock. My only other option is 2x28" monitors, 1 full screen wow on 1, 4x wows on the other.

Will Keyclone handle this correctly? Can I draw maximizer regions across 2 monitors?

Thanks!

Yes, there's a DISPLAY# drop down in the maximizer tool.

What version of windows are you running? XP seems to have no problems when running span mode across monitors but goes to crap when running dual-view. Vista was supposed to be problem free when using dual-view but does not have span-mode (thanks Microsoft! :( ). I'm having some performance degradation using Vista and dual-view but the PiP worked fine when I tried it across two monitors.

Hey there,

What do you mean when you say dual view? I was thinking of just adding another monitor to my video card's second monitor port and enabling it in windows. Is this a span or dual view? I've no idea :/

Also, what does the DISPLAY# do?

For example, if I want to move a guy from my second monitor to be mainscreened on my first monitor, how would I do this?

Assume:

Monitor #1 - Fullscreen wow

Monitor #2 - 4 wow's equally split across

If the monitor is oh 1920x1080 how would I setup the zones correctly?

Thanks :)

the display # is used in laying out the regions. once you have your wows running and in their regions, pip will move them appropriately between the monitors as you'd expect

So this means that keyclone works with dualview in XP and doesnt require horizontal span? if so I love you KC
