Default projector w/ arkaos

Hi everyone,

was wondering how to set arkaos 3.6 so that only the preview window is shown on the projector screen and not my whole laptop screen?

Also in an unrelated question, does anyone know the best way to have multiple sources come up in different sections on the same screen, i.e not mixing layers but separating the screen into a grid and in each section of the grid having a different film playing?

If I am not making sense let me know and I'll try to expand.

Thanks!

Don't think you can have the preview as your output on the projector screen, only the intended full-screen display output.

But you can have multi sections on screen at same or different times tho you cant actually change it live once you've set it up (well you can, but you'll understand once you try this)

Double-click on the visual icon in the bottom cell of the key in the Patch window then in the menu that opens you'll see Horizontal position, Vertical position and Size these will change where your pic or video clip will be positioned on your screen when played.

hope this helps

thanks for that mavdog.

my bad i didnt mean the preview window, i meant the full screen window when it is not set to full screen on my laptop, so that i may change things on my keyboard settings without everyone seeing it on the projector, screen.
ive got my full screen window open but not set to max size, but would still like it to come up max on the projector.

cheers

you have to go into your video settings in windows and set up your second monitor.

After that restart Arkaos, go to advanced preferences and select the 2nd monitor under 'monitors'.

Think it would be easier if i just linked you the manual i could try describing it all but think the guide says it best page 35 for what your looking for.
