Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Preview other monitors on primary

Hello,

Here's the setup:

Primary screen is under my eyes, but I've three other screens in other places, that I can't see directly.

My aim is to be able to see preview of mon 2,3 and 4 on the primary screen.

I would only need small previews (like 300 px width) , low quality and frame rate are not a problem. It's just in order to know what's on wich screen.


I think I'm going to use the script allowing to move active windows to monitor X in order to send the good application to the good monitor, but a feedback is important.

On XP you could do this with the monitor preview feature under UltraMon menu > Mirroring.

For Vista this feature isn't available yet, but you could use the MirrorMon add-on instead.

Hello,

Thanks for the answer but I don't see how I've to do exactly.

How do I choose the size of the mirror. I mean the destination size. When I simply use the mirror function the mirror is fullscreen, I don't see how to place it in a little preview window, like 300px width and placed at the top left of the main screen.

I was able to do it with the mirrormon addon, I don't find how to do with the ultramon built-in mirroring function, but it's not a problem.

As I can even launch multiple time mirrormon addon it's perfect.

The monitor preview feature is only available in version 3.0.2 and earlier, you can access it via UltraMon menu > Mirroring > Monitor Preview.

Hello,

I'm using beta 3.0.4 so I should see this option but in the Mirroring part I've only Start, Stop, Pause and Settings.

But no problem it's perfect with the MirrorMon addon as I can use it in command line.

3.0.4 doesn't have the monitor preview feature yet, this will get added again in a later release.
