I've attached a screenshot of what's happening.

Both images are sized exactly to the screen resolutions (1280x1024 and 1920x1200). The image on the right is pushed over to the left screen. The image on the left wraps around to the right screen. I've tried with and without the Active Desktop checkbox checked. It doesn't make much difference.

I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate x64 with GeForce 7900 GS video card. ]]> RE: Problem with Dual Monitors, different resolutions https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/problem-with-dual-monitors-different-resolutions/?ID=b2ef3f5b-038f-4ccc-8de5-9736acc0a0bf#7 Wed, 04 Mar 2009 11:06:03 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/problem-with-dual-monitors-different-resolutions/?ID=b2ef3f5b-038f-4ccc-8de5-9736acc0a0bf#7 DisplayFusion Jon, I tried it both ways, on and off. The result with it on was that the wallpapers shifted down a bit, but the horizontal alignment was exactly the same. If you want, I can turn fences back on and get a screenshot for you to compare against... ]]> RE: Problem with Dual Monitors, different resolutions https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/problem-with-dual-monitors-different-resolutions/?ID=b2ef3f5b-038f-4ccc-8de5-9736acc0a0bf#6 Wed, 04 Mar 2009 02:08:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/problem-with-dual-monitors-different-resolutions/?ID=b2ef3f5b-038f-4ccc-8de5-9736acc0a0bf#6 DisplayFusion Can you check one thing for me? When you are applying the wallpaper settings, is the "Adjust Background for use with Active Desktop" setting checked or unchecked?

Ahhh... Fences was indeed the problem! Looking good now! Any chance of Fences support in the future? It's a neat app, but I can live without it for now.

Thanks a bunch! ]]> RE: Problem with Dual Monitors, different resolutions https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/problem-with-dual-monitors-different-resolutions/?ID=b2ef3f5b-038f-4ccc-8de5-9736acc0a0bf#3 Tue, 03 Mar 2009 17:33:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/problem-with-dual-monitors-different-resolutions/?ID=b2ef3f5b-038f-4ccc-8de5-9736acc0a0bf#3 DisplayFusion Sorry, can you check one other setting in DisplayFusion? There is a setting in the Wallpaper window that says "Adjust Background for use with Active Desktop". Can you try applying your wallpaper with this set and un-set and let me know if it makes any difference?

On the left I have a 19" 1280x1024 monitor. On the right, I have a 24" 1920x1080 monitor. With my trial copy of UltraMon I can setup different wallpapers for each monitor as long as I have the correct sizes. However, with DF, I'm getting some weird results. Take a look at the attached screenshot...

Regardless of what I have set as my wallpaper on the left, the wallpaper on the right is pushed way off to the right. You can see where each monitor is by looking at the task bar. It almost looks like it's using the left wallpaper twice, then the right wallpaper.

Anyway, if anyone has any ideas of things to try, let me know! :) I went ahead and bought a copy of DF since it's so much cheaper than UltraMon, so I hope this is a quick fix!

EDIT: Ok, what's weird is that if I lock my PC the wallpaper displays normally... but then when I unlock, it's goofy again.

Thanks! ]]>
