Chapter 4 Using nView Multi-Display Settings About Display Numbering When you are running in nView Single display, Clone, or Dualview mode, the numeric part of the display image identifier such as 1 (or 2), 1 and 2, 1a and 1b, or 2a and 2b reflect the Windows display number, as viewable from the Windows Display Properties page. Note: The Windows operating system only assigns numbers to displays running in native Windows multi-display mode - i.e., Dualview, which is common to both Windows and NVIDIA - but not Clone mode, which is an NVIDIA nView-specific display mode. nView Dualview mode. The display images on the nView Display Settings page are numbered as separate displays, 1 and 2, as in the Windows Display Properties page. nView Clone or Span mode. Multiple displays running in nView Clone or nView Span mode also appear as one "Dualview" head to Windows and therefore the Windows Display Properties page displays only a single display image. The display images on the nView Display Settings, however, may be numbered as 1a and 1b (or 2a and 2b) where the numeric value remains the same with only the alphabetic part of the number (a or b) designating separate heads indicating dual display. About Renaming Displays In this release of the NVIDIA driver, you can also "rename" the display names that appear on your desktop context menu shown in Figure 4.4 of the previous chapter. On your nView Display Settings page, these display names are also always visible in the Primary Display and Secondary Display fields and when you rest your mouse on a display image, as shown in Figure 4.5. 46 User's Guide
