Garacesh Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Woohoo! I finally got two screens I'm a professional now! Second one's a touchscreen, too. A bit gimmicky, but I figure I might as well have the functionality. It'll be useful somewhere-or-other, I'm sure. Thing is, its touchscreen capabilities are only applying to the primary monitor (1680x1050), and I want it to be the secondary monitor (as it's 1280x1024 - I'm on odd one that prefers my secondary monitor to be 4:3) - obviously not ideal to have to touch the wrong monitor at the wrong resolution. Does anybody know of a way I can make it only apply to the secondary monitor? There's nothing in its hardware settings (Control Panel - Mouse - Hardware - USB Touchscreen Controller (Universal) - Properties) My Google-Fu has failed me, and I can only find threads mentioning Tablet PC Settings, of which is not an option in my Control Panel
LosOjos Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Maybe I'm missing something, but surely you just set it as your secondary monitor in the usual way (Nvidia, CCC etc.)?
Garacesh Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 The screen is the second monitor. The touch capability is not. If I poke the secondary monitor, it moves the mouse to the equivalent point on my primary monitor, instead. Sorry if I didn't explain it too clearly.

Thought you'd just had a tough week What brand/model is the touch screen? Have you tried seeing if there's a calibration option in Control Panel?
Garacesh Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) It's an.. A.. Um.. Thing. I can't see any branding on it at all. Identifies as Generic PnP Monitor in Device Manager. Thanks to Aida32 it tells me it's a Iiyama ProLite T1930SR-B1 19 inch Touch Screen Monitor. One of these. Edited February 12, 2014 by Garacesh
GeekyPete Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Classic!! You might just have to go low-tech and move the monitors round.
LosOjos Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Control Panel > TabletPC > Calibration Should let you choose which monitor to apply touch to...

Only T*'s I have are 'Taskbar and Start Menu' and 'Troubleshooting' Edited February 12, 2014 by Garacesh
