I have the trial for now and I am trying to find a way to have automatic resolution detection/adjustment when I switch monitors. I have to admit I am not sure of all of the features of fusion so I am asking if it can do what I want here. I can possibly do what I want with 2 video cards and that is possible if necessary although I wonder whether that would do what I really want here without some of the same steps anyway.
I have a vid card with a dvi and a vga out. I run a secondary monitor with my email and audio program doings. At times I like to go to my remote location which is set up with a monitor and usb (mouse/keyboard) feeds and I want that secondary monitor screen to be switchable back and forth between that secondary monitors view. In windows it is too much of a pain to first turn on the remote monitor then return to the pc and flick a kvm to the remote monitor and then have to pull up control panel display and click detect, etc to get the resolution correct. One time a day for this procedure may be ok but having to do that back and forth multiple times if I move around would take the fun out of life. Can the preferences be set up so when a monitor is powered on it will automatically be set up to go on with everything the way I want it? Can that be done where I don’t even have to flip a switch to swap the view to that remote monitor just turn the monitor on?
I suppose I could go to the same resolution monitors and that would probably work easily, but I’d rather not if I can do this otherwise. Any way to do this kind of thing? If it will only work with multiple vid cards, anything special I need to do there? I don’t think I really need full task bars, but it may be nice to have. Thanks.

Ok, I’ll look into that. I kind of thought there was what you mentioned with DF, but I wanted to make sure my actual question was also answered first. Thanks, I’ll see what I can do, that may work fine for me.
