display settings

so Oli i finally downloaded myself a copy. Looks like i'll be finding some uses for this.

I have a project coming up using a low res video wall. It takes a portion of the desktop and plays it. Its a very picky video wall and it must have the display running at 1024x768. The live portion of the screen must start at the very top of the screen but halfway accross (god knows why!)

The screen size is variable but is 96 x 64 at its smallest. Any chance that instead of primary 50% there could be an option for primary custom where you could place the screen in a fixed postion on the desktop?

If you could have that ready for tomrrow as i have to test the wall again! Seriously though if you could do this i might even buy you lunch at the next plasa.

Cheers

Dom

Re: display settings

I know the kind of video wall and it should work fine with screen monkey. I would suggest creating a custom display profile. If you right click and select settings you can create a new display profile by clicking on the new profile button next to the current profile name.

In the profile editor you can configure layer 1 to appear at the correct location and size for the screen.

I would recomend using the latest beta though as this allows you to specify the layer size in pixels rather than percentage of the deskop area.

Glad you have found a use, have fun!
