Unfortunately it isn't possible to have a screen saver running on just one screen while you work on different screens. As for disabling a monitor, that could cause other issues if just one screen gets turned on/off automatically, sorry. :(


Thanks for the reply.

I can see why it'd be difficult to enable screensavers on only one screen, but why is it difficult to enable/disable a specific monitor? Before I purchased DisplayFusion I was trialing UltraMon and this had the ability (a menu switch) to do this.

Thanks. ]]> RE: Switch a monitor off... https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/switch-a-monitor-off/?ID=b97510e4-a5ba-4e28-8b83-94e423fca8e8#2 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 20:31:27 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/switch-a-monitor-off/?ID=b97510e4-a5ba-4e28-8b83-94e423fca8e8#2 DisplayFusion Unfortunately it isn't possible to have a screen saver running on just one screen while you work on different screens.

Are there any plans for these? ]]>
