popular demand Welcome to our video on display Fusion if you're wondering how

00:00:17.520 --> 00:00:23.439
to acquire display Fusion I would highly recommend getting it through Steam where

00:00:21.119 --> 00:00:25.920
it is $29.99 although it goes on sale quite often I believe I got mine at

00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:32.200
around $7.99 and that was a pretty good deal that's why I don't necessarily remember

00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:33.840
it's not too big deal to me um the main

00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:37.480
reason why I like display Fusion is you can have different independent

00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:41.559
backgrounds on each monitor I personally run three different screens usually so

00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:44.680
it's nice to be able to have independent backgrounds because I just find it more

00:00:43.160 --> 00:00:49.559
interesting you can also stretch backgrounds or you can have the same background on each one it doesn't really

00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:53.199
matter it's quite flexible in that way uh my other favorite thing is that you

00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:56.480
can have taskbars on every monitors so you have your Windows taskbar and then

00:00:54.840 --> 00:01:00.120
you have on all your other monitors you can have display Fusion taskbars where

00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:04.519
you can pin whatever you want and they still have Arrow Peak functionality

00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:08.560
another great thing about these is if you're on your display Fusion taskbar

00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:12.520
and you rightclick on a window you have additional functionality so you can

00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:17.759
click on span across all monitors or you can click on move monitor to uh move

00:01:15.080 --> 00:01:21.880
window to next monitor so you can just flip things around as you go and it

00:01:19.759 --> 00:01:26.119
makes everything a much more enjoyable much faster experience another thing you

00:01:24.119 --> 00:01:30.759
can do can do is have multiple screen savers on each one of

00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:34.840
your screens which I'm really not into but if you want to do that you can now

00:01:33.399 --> 00:01:39.680
if you're into tinkering with software and want to get a little bit more functionality out of it you can go to

00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:44.719
the functions tab inside of the display Fusion settings window and set any key

00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:48.280
combination to a huge arrangement of different functions that you can do my

00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:52.640
favorite one is move window to center of monitor so that's control Windows key q

00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:58.119
and it just Bops whatever window you're currently on into the middle of your monitor there's a huge amount of other

00:01:55.759 --> 00:02:02.240
ones and you can set those to clickable buttons in the top left hand corner of

00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:05.920
the window so right here I can just have that which is move window to next

00:02:04.240 --> 00:02:12.440
display so you saw that through over to the TV very very quickly and if I double

00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:16.800
middle if I middle click the title bar it will also move it to next monitor

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:20.120
that is default functionality though and not a key combination so it's just nice

00:02:18.519 --> 00:02:23.599
little extra things that are built into it so here's something I really didn't

00:02:21.720 --> 00:02:28.280
find that useful but you might if you grab the title bar of a window and move

00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:32.040
it to the next one it you can if it's maximized it will REM maximize on the

00:02:30.440 --> 00:02:36.120
other side but the reason why I don't find it all that crazy useful is I can

00:02:34.440 --> 00:02:39.680
do that anyways and just put it on the top of the Monitor and then it maximizes

00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:45.360
anyway so it's kind of already built in but it might be a little bit faster for you this way if you're very nitpicky

00:02:43.239 --> 00:02:49.319
about over organizing your Windows you can enable a tool tip that will show you

00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:53.040
the size and location of your Windows at all points in time while you drag them

00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:56.920
around which is very nice another thing you can do is specify default window

00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:02.239
locations for when your computer starts up so something I have done is I set

00:02:59.959 --> 00:03:05.640
Skype I have two Skypes at all points in time so I set up Skype so that when I

00:03:03.959 --> 00:03:09.560
first turn my computer on on my left monitor not my main monitor I have one

00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:13.599
Skype on one side and my other Skype on the other side so I can constantly

00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:17.840
monitor all my chats another tool to help you Ma manage your Windows location

00:03:15.440 --> 00:03:21.640
is snapping so you can set in the snapping option inside of the display

00:03:19.920 --> 00:03:25.280
Fusion settings window you can set snapping distance I have it set at 10

00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:29.760
which seems very natural for me and then if you move Windows around they'll snap

00:03:26.959 --> 00:03:32.560
against each other which is kind of nice because it helps you organize things I

00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:35.599
actually use this all the time not everything will work with snapping

00:03:34.040 --> 00:03:39.560
properly like my Razer comm's window which is a very custom UI stylized

00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:45.959
window will not snap properly to other Windows but default uh Windows Windows

00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:50.159
and steam will all kind of snap to each other which is quite nice this isn't

00:03:48.480 --> 00:03:56.040
necessarily useful to me but if you're a laptop power user that has a dock at say

00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:58.200
work you can have uh monitor profiles

00:03:56.040 --> 00:04:01.519
and icon profiles so when you plug in a new monitor sometimes the resolution

00:03:59.920 --> 00:04:04.599
messed up or it's on or it thinks it's on the wrong side and your icons go all

00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:09.079
over the place you can have two individual profiles they can link into

00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:12.640
each other so if you set a uh monitor profile it can automatically grab your

00:04:10.799 --> 00:04:15.799
icon profile so you go to work click on the work profile and everything

00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:19.320
automatically configures itself exactly how you want it to be so you're playing

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:22.360
a game and your icons are all messed out because of some weird resolution that

00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:26.520
you had to play inside the game if all your icons are messed up just click on

00:04:23.919 --> 00:04:29.199
your profile everything will be fine you might notice a lot of these features are

00:04:27.919 --> 00:04:34.120
mainly good for people that are using Windows display Fusion also has features

00:04:31.520 --> 00:04:37.759
for people using Windows 8 one of them is a bypass to go right to your desktop

00:04:36.280 --> 00:04:41.960
although they suggest using classic start which also has that functionality

00:04:40.080 --> 00:04:46.840
so that's a little bit redundant at that point but the coolest thing in their

00:04:44.320 --> 00:04:52.360
windows8 features that I have noticed is they have a mini modern UI window so if

00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:56.479
you do end up going if you in classic start you can enable so you can still

00:04:54.320 --> 00:04:59.160
get to Modern UI if you do want that but don't want it to completely take over

00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:03.160
your screen you can have a mini little modern UI at almost any size that you

00:05:01.520 --> 00:05:06.400
want it's very customizable and then you can use it there still looks kind of

00:05:05.039 --> 00:05:12.960
nice but personally I wouldn't use that at all I would just completely byass modern UI because I don't like it um the

00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:16.160
power user menu in Windows 8 kind of opens in one specific spot you can

00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:19.840
teleport it to your mouse cursor by pressing Windows X and then that's about

00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:23.560
it for Windows 8 users but it's still quite nice for many things display

00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:29.160
Fusion integrates really really well with Windows if you right click on your desktop you can access desktop wallpaper

00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:33.240
monitor configuration or just general settings things but if you're a power

00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:36.720
user like I'm assuming many of you are you can dive deeper into all the

00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:40.440
different menus and get a lot more out of this program I've covered many things

00:05:38.919 --> 00:05:43.639
throughout this video but there's still tons that I haven't been able to go

00:05:41.919 --> 00:05:48.639
through and if you're going to sit down and spend the time to set up everything

00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:51.880
exactly how you want it it'll take some time but it'll save you time in the long

00:05:50.080 --> 00:05:55.800
run if you're worried about backing up all your stuff they have that functionality you can back up your

00:05:54.120 --> 00:05:58.880
settings to a regge file and then restore them if you ever reformat your

00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:04.319
computer or move to a different desktop with with a similar setup thank you for

00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:07.840
watching our display Fusion n we're just going to roll with

00:06:06.400 --> 00:06:12.199

00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:16.440
