Just moved over to a new PC, and I downloaded the script and it dims all monitors including the primary monitor. I've used this script for years without issue. Seems it's not correctly identfying the primary monitor as primary.

I'm running Win 10 and DF Pro v9.5. Kind of a complicated setup with 6 monitors, and the primary monitor is a MST(Multi-Stream Transport)-compatible monitor that is directly connected to graphics card, and has another displayport monitor daisy-chained to it.

Anything I should try to change in the script?

We'll have a look at the script after the holidays and keep you posted on what we find out.

Thanks!

It sounds like the script may not be getting the primary monitor ID correctly.

If you change this line:

if(BFS.Monitor.GetMonitorBoundsByID(id).Equals(Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds))

To this:

if(id == primary-monitor-id-number-here)

Does that make any difference?

Made the edit you suggested, but same behavior - all monitors get dimmed.

Could you attach a copy of the current script code that you've got in your settings?

Thanks!
