Thanks all for your responses. It's useful.

[quote="elspag"]EDIT: and does that option works when monitors are in duplicate mode? or only in extend?[/quote]

(Using Windows 7.)

If you're referring to the [u]Windows "Connect to a Projector" feature[/u]:
I always use WIN_KEY+P to pull it up (default Windows 7 hotkey)
and use "Connect to a Projector" >> "Extend"

Windows Projector >> "Extend"
does work with Dexpot Monitor Exclusion.

I have never used Windows with its projector "Duplicate" setting.

[u]in Dexpot[/u]:
Settings >> Switching Desktops >> Monitors,
untick the screen you want to not be affected.

[b]This feature does *not* affect your Desktop Icons [/b]
(even if you do have toggled on:
Settings >> Switching Desktops >> Desktop elements
>> Desktop icons >> Customize desktop icons [on] )


[b]This feature *does* affect which windows display (or hide)
upon a Dexpot screen switch [/b]


[u]Example[/u]:

I have two monitors.
I have the left one excluded.
I have the right one affected by Dexpot switching.

I keep my music app on the left one.
I keep different workspaces on the right one.



When I switch Dexpot Desktop Screens:

My left monitor stays the same,
the music app stays right where I put it,
& the right monitor changes.

If I am on desktop 1,
& move a window from my right monitor
to my left monitor

when I switch to desktop 2
that window will still be on my left monitor.
but my right monitor's windows will change.



Hope this clarifies.
Haven't tried Windows 10 + Dexpot, so no clue there.

[quote="elspag"]If I choose to exclude monitor 2 from desktop switching, this monitor will only show desktop 1? is that it?[/quote]
yes.

[quote]But, anyway, even if I exclude monitor 1 or monitor 2 from desktop switching they will change anyway.... in windows 10[/quote]
Wrote that down for compatibility testing.

[quote]EDIT: and does that option works when monitors are in duplicate mode? or only in extend?[/quote]
Duplicate only.

So, what you telling me is something like this?
Monitor 1 can switch to all desktops I have (in my case I only have 2 desktops)
If I choose to exclude monitor 2 from desktop switching, this monitor will only show desktop 1? is that it?

But, anyway, even if I exclude monitor 1 or monitor 2 from desktop switching they will change anyway.... in windows 10

Sorry, but this is really bothering me :?

EDIT: and does that option works when monitors are in duplicate mode? or only in extend?

:dex:,

seems you're mixing up things here. You can't make monitor 2 always show desktop 2. You're able to exclude monitor 2 from desktop switching in general, though.

"Unfortunately" for this topic, I never needed this feature when I was in Windows 7 :doh:
Hope this feature becomes available in Windows 10 :beten:

[quote="elspag"]I tried that but it changes as well on the monitor I have disabled monitor from there.
What I don't know is if it is Windows 10 ou Dexpot fault.[/quote]

It must be windows 10, because it has always worked faultlessly for me using XP32, XP64 and W7.

But you're right otherwise it is a great app!

Settings -> Switching Desktops -> Monitors

Example screenshots in my thread ([url]http://dexpot.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6168[/url]) except it seems there's issues if the monitor is in Portrait View.

Hello,
First of all, I wanna thank you for this awesome app! It really helps have everything organized!

There is, although, one issue I can't find nothing conclusive.
What I would like to do is:
I have 2 monitors. Let's call them monitor 1 and monitor 2. And I just want to use 2 single desktops.
In monitor 1 I want to be able to change between desktop 1 and desktop 2. In monitor 2 I want it always showing desktop 2.

Is this possible? If yes, how?
By the way, I'm using Windows 10 x64.

Thank you for your help.
