Hello:
Is it possible, with UltraMon, to have different wallpapers on different monitors?
If not, is there any other way?
Regards,
Hans L

Ok, I found out that you can have different wallpaper on different computer, but how?
I have created a "new Profile", which I call "Windows XP", because I want to use at least 2 images from the Windows XP standard wallpapers. I just don't know where they are! If you know where they are, I guess you can import them by clicking Browse in the UltraMon Desktop window. Or ...?
Thanks in advance,
Hans L

The standard XP wallpaper images are located in C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper.

Christina, I now have three different profiles, with "XP Autumn", "XP Azul" and "XP Pease", respectively. I click on "a different background for each monitor" and change the monitor (I have 3) to try to put a different profile image in each. No luck. I can only set the wallpaper image in one of the monitors.
What am I doing wrong?
Oh, and I do not get the entire screen covered by the image.
Regards,
Hans L

To assign a different image to each monitor, first select the monitor whose image you want to change, then click on Browse to select an image. Repeat this for each monitor.

Okay, got it now. And I streched, which made them cover the entire screen (which could have been called "Entire screen" :-).
Thank you!

Where is this that we are selecting the monitor in? My ultramon program does not give me that option.

To configure wallpaper settings, right-click the UltraMon icon in the system tray (the area of the taskbar with the clock) and select Wallpaper from the menu.

I am only able to apply a custom wallpaper to monitor 1. When I choose monitor 2, it still shows only on monitor 1.

After selecting monitor 2, click on Browse to select an image for monitor 2.

That worked...thanks!
Now, is there any way to have no wallpaper (or blank/solid black) on monitor 1 and a picture on monitor 2? That doesn't seem to work the same way.

This will work fine, just clear the image field, then double-click the color field above the image field to select a different background color for the monitor.

I have 2 monitors, but I can´t setup a diferent image for each monitor. I select monitor 1>image for monitor 1, then same steps for monitor 2, the images for each monitor are displayed in the setup windows of UltraMon software, but they don´t show in the monitors after I close the setup windows, they only show the color I select. Thanks in advance.

Please send me your wallpaper profile to support@realtimesoft.com, wallpaper profiles are located in the folder C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Realtime Soft\UltraMon\<version>\Wallpapers (C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Realtime Soft\UltraMon\<version>\Wallpapers if you're on Windows XP).
If you don't see the folder, go to Control Panel > Folder Options, select the View tab, then change the Hidden Files and Folders setting.

Hi Christian I think I found part of the solution to the problem, but I found an another: Considering that the operating system installed on the PC I have is in Spanish, I modified the first line of the script that I download and install ReloadWallpaper2 from your web page, to be as follows: "Const UMDESKTOP_EXE ="% Archivosdeprograma% \ UltraMon \ UltraMonDesktop.exe "instead of the original line that was " Const UMDESKTOP_EXE = "% programfiles% \ UltraMon \ UltraMonDesktop.exe". And in line 2, as you indicated to me I modified "Const DELAY = 5 'number of seconds to wait Before reloading the wallpaper" for the value to 5. But now when I restart the PC it seems that if it detects the script, but I immediately sends the error message: " C:\Documents and settings\All Users, Windows\Menú inicio\Programas\Inicio\ReloadWallpaper2.vbs, línea 18. Carácter 1, Error el sistema no puede hallar el archivo especificado, Código 80070002, origen (nul)", which translates into English would be:" C: \ Documents and Settings \ All Users, Windows \ Start Menu \ Programs \ Startup \ ReloadWallpaper2. vbs, line 18. Character 1, Error the system cannot find the specified file, code 80070002, source (null) "in all possible ways to help me as help many Spanish-speaking users solve the problem , I send you the folder where I place the script in Spanish and translated into English to see if it's okay Spanish " C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\Menú Inicio\Programas\Inicio ". English "C: \ Documents and Settings \ All Users.WINDOWS \ Start Menu \ Programs \ Startup ". As with the script modified as a file attachment (English and Spanish) in the above terms.
Once again many thanks

Just leave the first line as is, %ProgramFiles% is a so-called environment variable and will get replaced with the actual path to the program files folder on your system, independent of the language of the operating system.
