Strange thing over 2 monitors

[HRT SHAUN]

Well i got 2 22 inch LCDs today, first thought was LFS over both, so i set it up @ 3360*1050 (1680*1050 on each monitor) and when i do this the map is massive in the car and the pedals diagrams are wierd, also the car select screen is screwed and a few other things, i'll take some more screens tomorro but i got one photo

I can't see anything really bad on that photo. Only the map is a bit bigger, maybe because the map size is set using screen width applied on some width to height ratio? Dunno...

You say that you have some glitches on car selection screen. You might solve it by updating graphics driver, it's definitly worth a try.

running latest drivers, well i was 2 days ago

lol fraps only took 1 monitor worth of the pics, but u get the idea

This is normal behavior. LFS determines all those sizes by the width of the screen. Since your width is huge compared to the height the stuff seems to be too big. LFS detects triplehead setups (12:3 and 15:4) and fits all the menus and gui on the center screen. It could be done so that when the using dualhead setup (8:3, 10:4 and 32:10) LFS detects it and fits the menus and gui accordingly, but I guess the reason this has not been done yet is that dualhead setups are considered unusable by many (the center split thing) and so there aren't many users demanding support. Don't know if better dualhead support is in the works though.

You may play a bit with dualview settings in nVidia CP - I reccomend using the Classic version which is less buggy and more clear.

how do u drive with that big line down the middle..? that would drive me mad!

[Bob Smith]

Yep, this is an issue with LFS itself. There are a few improvements I'd like to see for dual-head users (as have been stated in earlier threads).

the line in the middle is annoying, i think i will just use 1 monitor, i was just being greedy thats all, the line only really affects the braking point if you use the ground as a braking point its hard to see but using board and stuff its not that hard, also the apex isnt hard to hit

I was thinking of getting a twin TFT monitor setup (as i cannot afford 3). The line in the middle would be annoying although if I can find the right TFT's only 2x5mm, further more has anyone ever tried taking the bezel off the outside of a TFT so there is no plastic in the way?? (better joining)
