Hi All,
Not sure if this is possible however I'm using three displays and want to run dual monitors on panels 1 and 2 (with 2 being primary) and clone my primary monitor on my third display.
2 x BENQ G2222HDL 1920x1080
2 x XFX 280 GTX (SLI Disabled)
Nvidia 301.41
Win 7 Prof 64-bit
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks,
James.

Unfortunately it's not possible to have a monitor be extended, but also cloned. However, there is a Function (DisplayFusion Settings > Functions) called "Mirror Monitor." Running this Function will clone the output of a monitor to a window that can be resized and moved to any monitor. The only downside is that it can only update about every half-second, so it's not ideal for video or gaming.
Please let me know if you have any other questions at all.
Thanks!

Is this something that is planned to be done? I can currently set myself up to span and clone using an Nvidia 660ti though the Windows display settings. It does exactly what I need but I was hoping to someday get a hotkey to turn this monitor profile on and off.
Ah ok, we are planning to add cloning functionality to the Monitor Configuration in the future, so if it's possible to do it in the Windows display settings, it should work when we add cloning to the Monitor Configuration as well. I'll add your info to the feature request that we have open, and I'll be sure to post an update if/when we're able to implement it.
Thanks!
