WORKING WITH MULTIPLE MONITORS

If your computer is equipped with more than one monitor, Intuos5 will map to the monitors based upon how they are configured in the display properties control panel.

•If more than one monitor is in use and you are in extended monitor mode, the tablet maps to all monitors as if they were one large display.

Monitor 1

Monitor 2

Example of tablet mapping to a single monitor.

Example of tablet mapping to the entire system desktop, which is displayed on two monitors.

•If your monitors are in mirror mode (both monitors display the same content), the tablet maps to the entire space on each monitor and the screen cursor is displayed on each monitor simultaneously.

See your hardware and operating system documentation for details on configuring your computer and operating system for use with multiple monitors.

Tips:

•You can customize the tablet to map to a single monitor or to a portion of the monitor area. See tablet to screen mapping.

•When your system is configured with multiple monitors, you can assign the DISPLAY TOGGLE function to an ExpressKey. This enables you to toggle the current tablet mapping and screen cursor between the primary display and your other monitors. See working with Display Toggle.
