Display image on extended desktop monitor

[VIYER]

I am using a high resolution monitor from Double Black Imaging as an extended display.

I would like to display an image on this extended monitor and open and close it with the desktop monitor through LabView.

Any suggestions?

Hi, Venkat.

There's no VI that does that in LabVIEW, but it sounds like something you could do with the Windows API. I recommend searching on MSDN.com.

Good luck!

Hi,



If this display is used as a second display through windows (so you can move your mouse from one to the other), it's not that difficult.


With an Application Node "Display>All Monitors" you get a list of all monitors and there resolution. Now you have to make a vi that puts it's front panel to the size of the monitor you want to use. On the front panel you put the picture you want.


Hope it helps.


Wiebe.
