    Why would the images on extended displays not line up with one another when a single image...


    On a 2-monitor system, I have photo backgrounds that are easily wide enough to span both displays, and am set up to extend displays on both monitors. Both displays have identical settings for resolution 1920x1080 and refresh rate 74.97 Hz; I've also used 60 Hz. But the portion of the image on the right display is easily lower by 1/2" compared with the left display. The same problem occurs with any image I use for my background. Image pasted below shows how the left and right sides of the background image are offset vertically.What are the possible causes for this?Coincidentally, but li

    Command Line to return image properties

    I'm trying to return a text file containing some details about image files in a folder and its subfolders. Specifically:

    • File Path
    • Image extension
    • Image Dimensions
    • Date taken
    • Camera Model

    These properties might not all be available for every image - I'm not sure if that will be a problem yet.

    Getting the list of files is fine; DIR C:\[...]\FOLDER\*.* /S| (I think). It's the next part I'm not sure about; I've found info on other OSs, I've also heard WMIC suggested. I tried to use that with a test on a single file:

    But it returns Error: Invalid query so I'm guessing WMIC doesn't work with images, or at least some of the arguments need to change.

    I also notice, when I enter wmic datafile get/? that dimensions is not listed as one of the available properties. That's about as much troubleshooting as I know how to do.

    So is there a way to return properties of an Image file (or list of files) in windows using the command line. If not, I'm open to anything that doesn't require installing additional software. Any suggestions?
