Hi,
I am using two monitors, one above the other. The top one is a 30" running @ 2560x1600. The bottom one is a 22" Touch screen running at 1920x1080. Using the excellent EMC utility, I have it running well with MFD's, ABRIS etc running on the bottom screen when at the full resolution of 2560x2680. Regardless of how big I make the abris, mfd's etc, the whole of the bottom screen is rendered by the sim.
What I would like to do is;
Instead of running the sim @ 2560x2680 (full res of both monitors), I would like to have it running at 2560x2160 so as to leave 520 pixels free on the bottom monitor. This will allow me to run a touchbuddy panel across the bottom of the bottom monitor. (If I run the touchbuddy panel when I have full res set in options, the sim renders unused areas of the bottom screen black, and the touchbuddy panel can't be the 'top' layer over the sim.)
All sounds good, BUT - when I try and play @ 2560x2160, the sim renders the GUI fine, filling the top monitor, but when the actual sim runs, it centres the across both monitors so that the sim screen is centred leaving 260 pixels not rendered across the top of the top monitor, and 260 pixels not rendered across the bottom of the bottom monitor.
If you're still with me at this stage, thankyou. Can any of you clever buggers help me achieve this;
Then I can hopefully have the touchbuddy across the bottom and use it.
(I have used helios in the past, but touchbuddy supports all modules of DCS for what I need - simple sending of keystrokes.)
