  1. Multi-Monitor Wallpaper control


    I currently have a triple monitor set up, with two vertical monitors and a horizontal monitor, I want to be able to use slideshow wallpapers for these monitors and use two different folders for the different orientations of monitor. I.E. a slideshow for the horizontal monitor, and a slideshow for the vertical monitors, but you can only set different wallpapers for each monitor as static, instead of being able to set separate slideshows.
    Can we get this feature? Some paid applications allow for it, but they also come packaged with other features which are entirely unnecessary for what I want to do.

    :)

  2. Multi-Monitor Wallpaper in Windows 10?

    In Windows 8.1 you are able to pick a different desktop background for each monitor in Control Panel by right-clicking. However, with this new personalization app in Windows 10, that doesn't seem possible anymore. Surely there's a way to do it- why would
    MS remove it for an OS that's supposed to treat multi-monitor systems well?

    You can still get to the real personalization control panel using the CMD prompt, but surely there's a built-in way to do this.

  3. Multi Monitor and Desktop Wallpaper Problem

    I have a three monitor setup with a different wallpaper on the third to that of the other two. However, every time I restart my computer, the wallpaper on the third monitor changes back to the same as the first two.

    Problems with cut/paste in multi-monitor desktops

    There is a feature called snap that you can turn off. You can click on Start > type Display Settings, click on it > Multitasking > Snap. There you can turn it off and see if it helps.

    As for setting a different wallpaper for each monitor you have, kindly follow the steps below:

    • To start, right-click on the desktop of either monitor and select Personalize from the context menu.
    • Settings will open to the personalization section where you'll want to choose Background from the list on the left. Then scroll down to select your picture. There you can browse for additional wallpapers too.
    • Once you've found the ones you like, right-click one and select the monitor you want it set as the background.

    Hope this helps and if you have any other questions, don't hesitate to post back.

    Regards.
