VC Pixelates due to new Monitor - Help!
Posted: Sat Oct 05, 2019 11:41 am
I have been working to set up a new 23" touch screen monitor to run Air Manager with the A2A C172. In order to activate touch input, this monitor must be the "Main Display" in Windows 10. This caused P3d to initiate on the new touch screen rather than my 4K TV. Then and of course, when I move the small monitor window lower resolution with P3d v4.3 over to the large 4k TV it goes all pixelated.
I was offered a "Fix Blurry Apps" by Windows 10 but clicked NO. There is a place in the Control Panel that reactivates this option, but on restart there was no change.
I also notice something new in OPTIONS / Graphics / Display at the upper right "Full Screen Settings". I now have two Displays listed. NVIDIA GeForce 980Ti.0.0 has the 1920x1080 resolution of the Touch Screen. While the second display listed has NVIDIA GeForce 980Ti.0.1 with the 4k TV resolution of 3840 x 2160. Selecting the proper resolution is not saved when I choose the correct monitor and resolution and hit OK. So that this does nothing for the VC which remains pixelated and now started shimmering like a desert mirage. I don't find that this "Full Screen Settings" option has any real effect on the aircraft and surrounding scenery.
I changed NOTHING in P3d. The only change was the second monitor.
So...not being one to let a stubborn glitch get me down, I shut down and restarted P3D with only the 4k TV connected. No surprise, P3D VC is normal again. Crisp and Clear.
What to do. Seems I am being locked out of using a touch screen monitor for Air Manager as it demands to be the Main Display. That makes P3d initiate in the small monitor. Dragging that window into the 4K monitor causes the higher resolution to pixelate. This cannot be right.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.
