Hello, firstly... I have to say WOW! This program is pretty much exactly what I was looking for, I tried Matrox Powerdesk before this and didn't care for it. They should be ashamed to even classify themselves as your competition. Thank you to the Dev team here for the clear time that was put into this program!
Now onto the issue... I have done much "finangling"-to use a technical term-with a lot of trial and error trying to get the settings properly where I'd like them. I am happy to say that I have gotten to this point and as previously mentioned am thoroughly impressed with the capabilities. What my end goal is, is to have the same display function identically regardless of if I am in Nvidia Surround configuration or not. I WOULD just leave it in surround at all times, but the fact there is not an option for full-screen video not taking up the entire primary screen I cannot do that. Here is how I have it functioning currently:
Standard mode: I have a 1 over 3 setup, the monitor configuration is synced with a wallpaper profile to provide my triple screen wallpaper upon swtiching.
Surround mode: Same configuration, but the bottom "single" monitor is divided in 3 using the "Auto-split eyefinity..." option, and synced with a separate wallpaper profile.
Both of these function perfect in these configurations!
I have configured the "Load Next Monitor Profile" option from the functions menu to the "Shift+ctrl+s" key.
Switching from Surround to Standard: I use a "ctrl+alt+s" to toggle surround off, which leaves me with only 2 monitors 1 on top and one in bottom mid that are "next to each other" (stupid nvidia drivers). I use "shift+ctrl+s", my other monitors turn on, my wallpaper appears, and my top monitor acts as such instead of thinking it is on the side. Perfect!
Switching from Standard to Surround: Toggle Surround on, bottom monitors are in the correct configuration but the top monitor again thinks it is on the far right. Use "shift+ctrl+s" and I receive the below error.
An error has occurred while applying your new Monitor configuration.
Please check your settings and try again.
Error: Failed to call SetDisplayConfig. [HR: 87]
I go into the monitor configuration panel, load the surround profile manually... and perfect!
Sorry for the wall of text. TL
R... my configuration works. I can likely just bind the profiles to separate keys (i.e. use "shift+ctrl+1" and "2"... haven't tested this yet and I will update when I do), but I would rather be able to use the same key. Can someone explain what this error is?
Alternatively (preferably)... The triggers seem mostly limited to "Windows", is there a way to configure one based on number of monitors? Since Surround is technically detected as 2 monitors, I would like to have my surround profile automatically load if 2 monitors are detected, and my standard profile if 4 monitors are detected.
