Now with Wallpaper, if you have two active displays and you set a
wallpaper to your desktop.
Each display, from what I've observed, will display a single "copy"
of the wallpaper within it's own display.
The wallpaper won't "span" both displays, automagically. Let's say
both displays are side by side, each set
to 1024x768.Effective resolution, say 2048 x 768, if I find a
wallpaper that size and add it to my background, I won't see it span
the displays.
Do you agree? If you have a trick to span both displays with say a
2048x768 wallpaper, I'd love to see it.


I have my wallpapers which are mostly 3840X1024 as I have them across three
screens. I use a single video card the Matrox Parhelia 128. With that I have
the choice to spread the wallpaper across all three, or have three
wallpapers. Using the MaxiVista software I can also extend to a fourth
screen, my laptop but that exhibits the same wallpaper but as a second
picture. I will put up (a photo, not a screenshot) for you to see. I thought
that any card that would support two monitors would give you those options.
Try the manufacturer's website.
