Main window over 2 screens issue
So, I have a pair of 1920x1080 screens mounted over and under. Top is 43" and bottom is a 27". I HAD the main window stretched over both screens with EDIT window on top and MIX window below and all WAS dandy. That is, until I updated to the latest windows 10 update. Now when I try to drag the edges of the main PT window to fill both, once I get past about 3/4 of the way, it snaps to one monitor(usually the 27"). I've been at this stuff for years and can usually get it sorted, but after 30 minutes of cursing, I have given up for today. If anyone has any ideas, toss them my way. Details below:
Asus X79/i7 3930K 32GB quad-channel RAM nVidia Quadro 600 43" LED TV(HDMI from DVI output) 27" Acer LED monitor (DVI from Displayport output) PT2019.6 Was all good until latest Windows update More info: For some reason(seen this before too, but had it sorted until the update), the 43" at 1920x1080(Native) has icons off the edges. Used Screen Resize and adjusted things to fit, but this makes the lower screen slightly offset to one side. Very annoying, but I can live with that if I can get the windows where they were before the update. |

I guess you'd better revert to your latest backup, Dave.
At least to confirm that the update is the problem. |
Re: Main window over 2 screens issue
I have had to fix this before but i cant remember the exact issue! I am pretty sure that it was in the screen resolution menu not having it set to monitor. That's pretty vague, but IIRC the way i found it was disconnect the HDMI, boot the computer, and connect the HDMI while it's already chosen the non HDMI as them main display and see what changes on the screen resolution.
I'll post again if i remember the exact fix. |
Re: Main window over 2 screens issue
Are you sure the 43" is 1920x1080 native, a lot of them are actually smaller - I have the same issue via hdmi to my 43" LG - I have to run it at 1340 x 768 when using hdmi, if I run it a 1920, the edges are off the screen, also the text looks a bit jagged. If I run it on VGA instead everything fits on the screen at 1920, but text is still a bit blurry.
As for the snapping back to the screen, don't know but I'm on the latest update and have PT stretched over 3 screens plus the video playing back on the TV as a fourth, so I don't know if it's update related, but we are probably on diff video cards.. |
Re: Main window over 2 screens issue
Are you setting the monitor resolution using the Window's controls, or your video card's controls (e.g. NVIDIA Control Panel)? Try using the other one from what you normally use. Perhaps the Windows Update overwrote your settings.

Dont forget to check the aspect and display settings in the TV itself, ya never know.

Re: Main window over 2 screens issue
Got it! Seems the trick is to stretch the main PT window without having a session opened. Of course, that won't work for Mac, but for Windows users, file that one away for future use:o
