Mouse Settings For Dual Displays

Hi Gang
Just started using Dual Displays for Final Cut. Was wondering if anyone had some tips for maximizing mouse settings? Its taking some time aquiring control of the mouse.
Should I go to Preferences for adjustments?

Best Settings for two displays

Final Cut has layout settings for Dual Displays --- I have two displays but prefer to learn Motion first and FCP later --- any recommendations?

I've created and saved ten or more different 2-display layouts. I keep changing them around. Just pull off the tabs and build them the way you want, save the layout. Give yourself a few projects to see how you like it, move 'em around, save the layout to a new name.
I have found placing the 4-port display on the larger display is convenient if it's on the right. Everything else is arranged on the smaller monitor, on the left side of the desk, with the windows I use less in the upper left corner, timeline along the bottom, inspector along the right side, and layers/media in the middle. I use the inspector more often than anything else so it's closer to the viewports.
Warning...when you move Motion's panes around, Motion sometimes loses track of which windows have the focus and you can lose many functions, especially keyboard shortcuts.

"Design" view as a separate panel for dual-display

I just started using CS6 and was really hoping to see a new workflow enhancement for dual-display production with the "Design" view. I code all of my markup by hand in the code view. I would love to see the "Design" view in a separate panel that I could drag over to my second display by itself. Sort of like designers using "Code Inspector" as a panel on their second display. But for me, to maximize efficiency, I need the code to be closest to all of the menu bars and panels. I just want to make a code edit, click the DW "refresh" button, and glance at the layout in a "Design" without having to do additional clicking or moving pointer from display to display, ya know? Using browsers I have to save the file(s), upload the file(s), wait for the transfer to complete, move my pointer to the second display, click the refresh button, THEN look at the layout. Ugh. Been doing this for years, and really am tired of it. I have looked through the commands and online material hoping to find an update. Is this still a pipe dream?
Thanks for any info,
- DK

Apart from using the Code Inspector, I don't believe this is possible. It sounds like a sensible suggestion, though. You can file a feature request through the form at http://adobe.ly/DWBug.

Colour management warning for dual display users

For those of you who require a colour managed workflow and have more than one display, be very careful in Mountain Lion. It appears to have a bizarre bug where images loaded and shown on the primary display (e.g. in Preview) are initially rendered with the colour profile from the secondary display, or something along those lines. Dragging the display window to the secondary display and back again sorts things out. I've filed a bug report.
If your two (or more) monitors have the same colour profile, you won't have a problem. The only workaround I can see is to set your least important display(s) to all have the same profile as your (probably calibrated, if these things matter to you) primary display, at least until (if?) the bug gets fixed.
If you want to see it for yourself, set your two displays to differing profiles - e.g. NTSC (1953) on the primary and Wide Gamut RGB on the secondary. Then load an image into Preview - something with lots of shades of red "works" well for the colour profiles mentioned. Take a screenshot of the Preview window as a reference. Move the window to the secondary display; note the colour shift as it gets re-rendered. Now drag it back to the primary display. It'll look quite different compared to the screenshot you took earlier, despite the fact it's the same image being shown by the same application on the same display in the same window... All you did was drag the window between two monitors and back again.
It doesn't seem to matter if the image in question has a colour profile embedded in it or not. When comparing with your screenshot, feel free to drag the screenshot between the monitors too - after all, it'll be suffering the same rendering bug! You'll still see a different result; in fact it may even be magnified by the accumulated rendering errors.
Preview isn't the only application affected; I've seen identical issues under harder to replicate circumstances in Safari, for example.
Given this fault and others I've seen with colour rendering in Lion, plus several new bugs found in Mountain Lion, I'm afraid that if a colour managed workflow is important to you - well - Snow Leopard or Windows...?! Ugh, what a mess

I've encountered many of the same woes with color management being a graphic designer, but here's my issue:
Have a 15" (Early 2011) Macbook Pro. It is turned on with me hooked up to my Dell U2410 and display open for a dual display configuration. The Dell is my primary monitor.
I then unplug my MBP to use it around the house. I go to plug it back into the Dell for my dual monitor. I notice that the color on the Dell looks good, but now the MBP has a very blue color temperature. Like moving from the preconfigured 'Color LCD' profile to 'sRGB' which definitely shifts to a blue color on the MBP.
I check the color profiles in System Settings and the Color profiles are correct. 'Dell U2410' for my Dell and 'Color LCD' for my MBP. But as I said, it's much bluer than standard. I try to change the color profiles around on the MBP and no matter which I select it's always the same color with no shifts I would expect to see.
Only solution I have found is to restart my computer. Upon restarting all is well again in the world.
It's pretty annoying having to restart my computer everytime I plug it back into my workstation with Dell and keyboard.
Related note: USB does not work when I plug things back and again have to restart to fix this.

Use laptop display for dual display

I'm working on a G5 w/ artisan monitor and want some extra screen real estate. I have a G4 power book and wondered if I can somehow use the screen on the laptop as a dual display for the G5? Both run OSX tiger.

Hi Virginia,
Welcome to the discussions.
As far as I am aware, the graphics cards on the powerbooks enable you to run a second display from the laptop, but only as a "mirrored" (i.e. identical picture) of the main display on the laptop. For extra screen real estate, you need fully independant operation, and that can't happen.
Also, I don't think you can use the screen off the laptop as a "passive" display, as there is no practical way of supplying the correct video input to your laptop display from the second graphics port of the G5.
For these two reasons, I believe that what you are considering will not be possible.
Cheers!

Stereo Audio settings for dual thunderbolt displays?

I'm Daisychaining 2 x 27 thunderbolt displays off my macbookPro,
How do I get the one display to play the left audio channel, and the other the right channel for stereo audio on my desk?

Read the about the Expansion Slot manager in Apple Help.
I have the ATI 1900 XT in slot 4 and 16x, but if barefeats is true slot 3 ans 8x is nearly as fast. It depends a lot on waht other PCI express cards you have installed and how fat you need to run these.

Optimum Settings for mini display to VGA

I just got a mini display to VGA cord for my aluminum mac book and hooked it up to my 37" Vizio LCD HD tv and was wondering what the best settings would be to put it on as far as the resolution goes.

ok and one other question, Is there a way to close the lid on my mac book and not have the display go away on my LCD tv? Because if i leave the lid open its fine but if i close it then the computer basically just goes to sleep.

Thunderbolt dock for dual display

Hi All,
Does anyone have a recommendation for a reasonably priced (say < $100) Thunderbolt dock? I want the MagSafe 2 + Thunderbolt 2 cable simplicity... i.e. set the laptop on the desk and click the two cords into my MacBook Pro.
I need to connect two HP displays (each display has 1x DVI and 1x DisplayPort) and my Mac keyboard and Logitech MX mouse.
Thanks!

the resolution on both of the tvs are 1920 x 1080, and the macs resolution is 13.3-inch (1280 x 800), is that what you are referring to?
tv specs:
1920 x 1080, Samsung UE22D5010 22-inch Widescreen Full HD 1080p
Ultra Slim LED TV
2 hdmi ports
Ultra Clear Panel
50Hz LED TV
so will it work for me or my mac cannot power them all? therefore one screen will be black?

Mouse settings for Revit on Windows 7 Side of iMac

I have a pretty specific question that's really stumping me. I work on a PC at my job and work in AutoCAD and Revit. At home I have an iMac. I recently partitioned it with Bootcamp and installed Windows 7 and Revit 2012. I also bought and installed a wired Microsoft wheel mouse as it's needed to zoom, pan and orbit the views in Revit. I can't get the settings right on the mouse in order for the wheel button to pan and orbit. It will zoom in and out, but not pan and orbit? Any help anyone has would be most appreciated!

Is your system protected by a firmware password? Or do you have FileVault enabled? Or did you install Boot Camp on a Fusion drive?
Have you tried booting from the Recovery HD:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.

Change settings for external displays: no "mirror displays" mode

Hello,
I'm using a 13" MBP with Snow Leopard. I'm using different displays and projectors in different locations. When you plug an external display in, the two displays are first in "mirror displays" mode. First thing I do is to switch this off.
Is there any way of changing the settings, so that an external display doesn't start in the synchronized mode??
Thanks in advance.
Message was edited by: robert170

only if you plug in this projector again. If you plug in a new projector (which I often do) it allways starts in "mirrored" mode.
I just found an app which - at least - makes the switching easier:

REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY (two settings for output display)

Hi all,
I am using REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY FM to display the contents of my internal table. I have about 53 columns to display.
I have two requirements.
1. After I display the list, I want to see the first 3 columns all the time when I scroll horizontally right.
2. Depending on the selection criteria the number of columns in which I have the data varies. Right now, for example, if the data is only till 40 columns, the last 10 columns would be empty. I was wondering if there is a way by which I dont see the columns which are empty after I display the list.
Looking forward for helpful answers. Please let me know if there is something not clear in what I have asked.
Thanks

Linking iMac with iBook for dual display???? Possible?

If anyone could help it would be extremely appreciated.
Can i link my iBook with my new iMac to have dual screens?
There is a mini DVI on the iMac and the iBook so am i right to presume that i could link the two together and have dual screen support? I have been trying to find a mini DVI - mini DVI cable online but to no avail so im not sure what to do...

How disappointing, it would likely be so easy for the apple people to put an input in.
Once I get my new computer my old laptop's fairly nice screen will never be used again...
