I have my desktop strected on two monitors but can't get a dual monitor image to stretch onto both screens. It only wants to put the same image on both screens. When I attempt to set the background/desktop image to stretch it just squeezes the image to fit the single monitor (1280x1024) and not stretch to the full 2560x1024.
If it doesn't work at first. Just try a bigger hammer...

Do you realize that, if you take an image that looks normal at 1280x1024, it's not going to look normal if stretched across 2560x1024?

You could set the Position option to Tile, this will work fine if you don't have a secondary monitor to the left of the primary.
UltraMon can also do this, independent of monitor arrangement.

[quote]You could set the Position option to Tile, this will work fine if you don't have a secondary monitor to the left of the primary.[/quote]He's using two monitors, so obviously one of those is a secondary monitor, right? Or, am I not understanding your comment?
And, what's the significance of a secondary monitor being to the left of the primary? If the secondary is to the right of the primary, is that any different?

It's due to how Windows handles the wallpaper, you would get a reversed wallpaper if the secondary monitor is to the left of the primary.
