On recommendation from a few people on these forums, I just purchased and installed the "Duet Display" app. After a few glitches downloading the client software for Windows onto my Windows 7 laptop, I've gotten things working and I'm pretty impressed so far. However, there's one thing that I can't figure out.
I want the IPP to duplicate what's displayed on my laptop (NOT extend the display), and I figured out how to do that in Windows Control Panel. However, that setting won't "stick". IOW, after I exit out of Duet Display on the client side (the laptop), then re-start it, the setting goes right back to "extend the desktop".
The reason that I close, then re-open on the client side is that the laptop display's resolution changes when Duet Display is running so that the Windows desktop no longer fills the screen. I suspect the problem may be a mismatch of screen resolutions between the laptop and the IPP.
My laptop's native screen resolution is 1366x768 and can go no higher than that. When I view my choices on Windows 7 control panel for setting the IPP's resolution as a 2nd monitor, I get a number of choices, but none are 1366x768.
So, is there a way for me to have both the laptop and IPP display the same thing with each at full screen? If so, what do I need to do to accomplish that? For those of you using "Duet Display" and an IPP, what resolution do you have the IPP's screen set at?
Thanks!
