Help with Vertical Monitors

[pjdurai]

Hi Folks

I am new to bug.n and trying to figure out how do do vertical monitors.

Instead of splitting left half as primary and right half for the stack, can I configure it to have the top half as primary and bottom half as the stack ?

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Appreciate your time.

Thanks pj

Hi,

have you tried various settings for the various axis properties as described in the documentation? Which version of Bug.N are you running and with which windows? Dual Screen setup? Can you share your config?

Using the hotkey WinCtrlT or the following lines in Config.ini (as an example for the second view on the first monitor) should fit the bill:

View_#1_#2_layout_#1=1
View_#1_#2_layoutAxis_#1=2
View_#1_#2_layoutAxis_#2=1
View_#1_#2_layoutAxis_#3=1

@joten I can't seem to get the given layout rule to work, anything in the Config file that doesn't start with Config_hotkey or Config_rule seems to be ignored. This is using the latest stable release (v9.0.2).

You are right. View_#* is part of the session management, therefor you should be able to set the above in Config.ini, when bug.n is not running, or set the layout via the hotkeys (i.a. WinCtrlT); with session management it should be the same after a reload of bug.n or Windows re-login.
