Extend the Windows desktop in the DISPLAY AREA?

Cannot find or do not? Why? try using a different monitor and can not find how to switch the default monitor to a secondary monitor! Help!

Hello

You need to configure Windows display adapter to extend your desktop:

Right click on the desktop and then click Properties.
In the DisplayProperties dialog box, click the settings tab.
Click the display list and select your external monitor. If you don't see more monitors listed, your hardware may not support Dualview. You can still use MaxiVista to set up a second computer as an additional screen, however.
Select the extend my Windows desktop on this monitor option. Click on apply or OK.

    Mymax window size I see 0 - 51 seconds and I really want to "scroll" display area to see the past 51 seconds but I can't work out how to do it.

    I did read the help guide but found nothing.

  • Can satellite L550 - I extend the display?

    Hello

    I was wondering if I can extend the desktop on an external monitor? I need to work on a desktop computer screen double. I know the L550 has a VGA output, however-, I have a feeling, that it can only be used to send 1 office to a different view or duplicate.

    If it makes a difference the model I want to buy is the L550 - 1 9 or L550-1CC

    Thanks :)

    Hello

    Of course, you can extend the display. Simply connect an external monitor to your laptop and in the options of the display driver, you can select Office extend Windows on this monitor.

    Have you tested this?

  • The display area moves and focuses on the object when it is selected

    I recently downloaded 6 Captivate and when you edit a slide if I select a subject it focuses on the object and he spends a large part of the blade out of the display area.

    For example, I'm working on a blade with about 10 possible answers multiple choice quiz and as I change these answers he focuses on the first answer while he is sitting on it. For me change the background display options I manually move the slide because I can see them no longer.

    I'm sure that there is a simple answer, but I checked the preferences, opinions, online forums and I can't find anything on this and it's driving me crazy.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    You can also view > view and then zoom back, to decrease the size of the slide in the main pane.

    Or

    If there is no unexpected behavior when you use the workspace or by using features, you can reset the preferences:

    Here is the procedure:

    Captivate's preferences folder location is:

    [Windows 7: C:\Users\[user name] folder of Captivate 6 \Local\Adobe\Adobe \AppData (hidden folder)

    Windows XP: Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 6 record - [user name] C:\Documents and Settings\

    Mac: /Users/ [user name] / Library/Preferences/Adobe Captivate 6 folder

    You will first need to close Captivate 6 and then rename the folder 6 Captivate 6_OLD Captivate.

    Then restart the captivate and check if this solves this problem.

    Re-create the preferences resets all settings and customization of Captivate, but won't have any changes to your project.

    Thank you.

  • Portege Z30 - need to extend the display on two external displays

    Hi all

    I'm running Bloomberg and need the image to extend on the screens LCD HD complete two 24 ". Including my current laptop's built-in display, I use three panels at the same time. I can do with the Z30 1 CZ? Should I buy a docking station for that?

    Right now I use a ultrabook from another manufacturer but I'm not satisfied with the reasons that have nothing to do with the display. Currently, I use a docking station, where a screen connects by DVI and one VGA cable.

    Can I use the VGA and HDMI from laptop ports to get the same solution with the Z30?
    Best wishes
    Peter

    To my knowledge the display function depends on the graphics card/chip.

    Usually, you can use a VGA or HDMI output.
    VGA (RGB) port provides analog, HDMI provides digital signals, and as far as I know, you can't use both at the same time

    However, you could buy a "hdmi adapter usb adapter allowing you to use two external monitors simultaneously.

  • extend the display time in data acquisition for more than 10 sec

    I have create a vi of analog data acquisition. Everything works fine. However, no matter what I increase sampling # and rates; maximum display time is always 10 sec. I need to display the longer period time, but don't know how. Can anyone help?

    Not a good VI.  Where did you go?

    The properties VI/execution has the checkbox next to unchecked the Autmatic error handling.  And you don't have an error on your DAQ assistant indicator, or sons of the error at all.  Fix them, and I bet you will see that you got a timeout error.  Also, the while loop had uncontrolled Autogrow which means Add constants or change the display of the Express VI to disappear outside of the loop rather than more and more to their housing.

    You do not have a timeout constant cable to the DAQ assistant, which means that it will use its default value of 10 seconds.  This will cause a time-out error that you won't see because the VI property is unchecked and you don't have another handling error in its place.

  • Extend the display does not - second black monitor

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite C655 and I connected a 2nd monitor in order to have two screens to work on.  The screen resolution is set to the optimum level for each monitor, I chose the option "Extend these screens" and each monitor is set to a different refresh rate.  However, the second monitor stays black.  If I click on "Identify", a number 1 appears on the screen of the computer, but nothing appears on the external monitor.  Even the mouse cursor does not appear when low-pressure on this screen. I checked for updated drivers, but Windows says I already installed the best drivers.

    If I go to "Duplicate the poster", the external monitor displays the desktop and the laptop screen is black.   I don't understand.  It was working fine yesterday, but today when I turned on, I'll have these problems.  I even tried plugging an external monitor that is completely different with the same results. Any help would be appreciated.

  • How to extend the display of two monitors

    Original title: disorders bi-ecrans

    I tried to set up a second monitor to my computer. I don't have that one port, so used a double adapter cable to connect the second monitor.

  • Of course do more fit in the display area

    I use 7 Captivate to publish a course.  The course seems to be larger than the playground when I spotted and after I publish a lot of my content is 'cut' around the edges.  I posted this exact same course using 6 CP last week and did not have this problem.  The content remained within the limits of the area of game on IE and the iPad.

    I see this problem before I publish, using the preview options in Captivate.  Will there be a new parameter in 7 CP that I'm missing?  Why is my dish too great for the playground?  Some screenshots below:

    Captivate window:

    Captivate.jpg

    That's what I see in the preview:

    Browser.jpg

    I have a thought here.  It is a long shot, but worth a visit:

    In Captivate SWF content you can resize images to any size you want and even if the original image was much larger, published content won't show the image at reduced size.  In the example you show above, was the original background image exactly the same as the dimensions of the current project, or it was maybe more big and you just resized it down into Captivate by dragging them in the corners?  In this case, when the content publishes on HTML5, perhaps the original background image is used in the output, not the resized version of the same image.  If the original image is too large, that could explain your problem.

    If the image with the dollar signs is a background image in your project, try to insert a replacement that you resize in a graphics editor before inserting it into Captivate.

  • Can I extend the graphics area of axes in 3d?

    For all the 3d module graphs that we have fixed axes area X Y and Z, that I know, I can only add more division but the box axis always have the same width and high and the interval between each division will decrease.

    Is my question option to customize the area of axis longer than the other axes?

    To understand what I mean, you can see this example in youtube, the Matlab graph and so I hope to do a similar one.

    There is no way to change the ratio of the axis of a chart 3D at this time.
