Hunter, never mind, I GOT IT!!! Thanks for your help. Now, hopefully, once I get another monitor for the Right MFCD, I can figure out how to get it up and running. Mike

Thanks again Hunter, almost there! I am using a 1920x1080 monitor with the 800x600 monitor positioned (in windows) at the bottom left corner of the main monitor. What I really want to do at this point is set up the small monitor to capture just the Left MFCD. What I have done is moved your latest file into Monitor Setup, made a copy, renamed it My setting 4, and deleted the right MFCD lines. I am now getting the Left MFCD on the small monitor, however, it is a bit small. So, hoping this is the final question, how do I make it larger? I tried changing the width and height settings you had (400x400) to larger and smaller numbers but it does not seem to make much of a difference, if any.

This thing is driving me nuts. Have tried adjusting the x,y settings for the left/right MFCD's still no joy.

OK, appears we are now on the right track. Thank you Hunter! Using your lua edit, I'm now able to get a black screen on the MFD monitor (that is actually progress) and am able to move the mouse pointer down on to the screen when in DCS. Following Guppy's instructions I changed the resolution to 1920 x 1605 in DCS, but nothing shows up on the MFD monitor. Am I on the correct track, or am I completely missing something

Currently using a single 27" monitor 1920x1080, and an 8 " monitor 4:3, 800x600. I have used this file by Guppy to create a new monitor lua file https://guppy.home.blog/2019/02/06/configuring-screens-and-pulling-data-from-dcs/ My problem is that when I launch DCS, and go to settings, system, and click on the monitor drop down, the file does not show up. I've searched on the form, and found another example of the lua file, which was almost identical to the one Guppy created, but I'm still unable to open mine in DCS. I have attached my file. Any ideas or suggestions. Thanks, Mike "Pops" Pelzel My_setting.lua
