Hi all. I am new to this.What I am looking for is the ability to use my dual monitors 1 at a time.
I want to be to use Monitor 1 as the Primary monitor, with Monitor 2 completely disabled.
Then I want to be able to click a single button, or press a hotkey that will - enable and switch to Monitor 2 making it my Primary... while at the same time disabling monitor 1.
Whew.
I know how to : SWITCH PRIMARY
and I know how to : DISABLE SECONDARY
But I don't know how to : Combine the 2, into a singular shortcut.
I was wondering if this can be done.
Thanks for your help.

You could do this with UltraMon's display profiles feature, but please note that UltraMon usually can't change the primary monitor on laptops.

Thanks tons. I got it to work. I now have shortcut links to:
switch to MONITOR_1 and disable MONITOR_2.
+
switch to MONITOR_2 and disable MONITOR_1.
Is it possible, instead of having two seperate shortcut links - to make it one? ...
So if MONITOR_2 isn't enabled then when selected it will switch to that (and turn off Monitor_1). And Vice Versa.

I have uploaded a script which does this, ToggleSingleMon.

I'm going to look into this for the next release, I've seen this as well on a Windows 7 system with Nvidia video cards. Not sure yet if this is an UltraMon or Nvidia issue.

Hallo zusammen.
I have the same Problem like Boris.
I think for all user with Win7 and nVidia Cards, the script must do that:
Monitor 1 is primary , Monitor 2 is disable
Start the Script:
* Enable Secondary -> wait 1 second
* Set Primary Monitor 2 -> wait 1 second
* Disable Secondary ->
After that:
Monitor 2 is primary, Monitor 1 is disable
But how to get back ?
Is it possible to write a script for that?

Any estimate when the next release will be? I'm running windows 7 64 bit, and this feature would really come in handy.
Thank You,
Bill

Should be ready soon, but there are still a couple of bug fixes I want to get into 3.0.8. ToggleSingleMon should work fine with 3.0.8.
