Dual-display screensavers? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Antagony · 05-09-2003, 01:39 AM

Sort of an off-shoot of a thread started by Gamer715 asking people what screensaver they use.

I have dual 17" monitors, and I am deeply annoyed by the fact that very very few screensavers work across both displays. The ones that ship with Windows work just dandy. My marqueed text will dance harmoniously across both screens.

Generally what happens is if I'm running the screensaver at the same resolution as my desktop, then the primary monitor runs the screensaver, and then all my windows on the secondary monitor turn invisible, showing only the wallpaper. While that is better than other things I can imagine, I'd like a different alternative.

Does anyone know of any good multi-display screensavers, or perhaps some clever trick?
