  • eDualHead small addition wanted

    Guys, something that would be really useful is for the eDualHead feature to recognise if your 2nd monitor was switched on. That would save having to manually use a hotkey to switch out of dual mode when you only need 1 monitor on. Any thoughts?

    That would be possible I guess.

    What I'd like is that the DH Zoom feature doesn't just enlarge the actual display, but just the application/desktop. Coz enlarging the pointer annoys me!

      not enlarging the pointer would be possible i guess (if the current matrox cards have no hardware pointer, that would be on the wish list for the next one ), but the grid would still be 2x2 pixels when moving the mouse i guess, so it'd look kinda weird.. a small pointer hopping over a too big screen...

      as for the automatic detection, i'm all for it (but it should be optional)

        'Course you're all overlooking the fact that edualhead only works with the 5.51 drivers, and that the 5.51 drivers SUCK so bad that I (and many others) have uninstalled them entirely.

          No, I mean I'd like it to be just the way Photoshop, Word, InDesign etc all work at the moment - you can zoom in there and it doesn't look silly

            If this is a feature you'd like to see, your best bet is to post it in Matrox's own forums, in the driver feature request forum. Us MURCers can't do it

              pace, that is software zoom, what the matrox cards do is hardware zoom - not as flexible, but faster (with no speed impact ideally) - if they didn't change it since mil1, it still magnifies EVERYTHING, not just window contents.. (or am i mistaken here?)
