Dual Monitor Setup
==================
The first step in getting OpenLP working on your system is to setup your
computer properly for dual monitors. This is not very difficult, but the steps
do vary depending on operating system.
Most modern computers do have the ability for dual monitors. To be certain
check your computer's documentation. A typical desktop computer capable of dual
monitors will have two of, or a combination of the two connectors below.
**VGA**

**DVI**

A laptop computer setup only varies slightly, generally you will need only one
of outputs pictured above since your laptops screen serves as one of the
monitors. Sometimes with older laptops a key stroke generally involving the FN
key and another key is required to enable the second monitor on laptops.
Some computers also incorporate the use of S-Video or HDMI connections.
A typical OpenLP set up consist of your normal single monitor setup, with your
projector setup as the second monitor. With the option of extending your
desktop across the second monitor, or your operating system's equivalent.
Microsoft Windows
-----------------
Dual monitor setup is similar among all the currently supported Windows
releases (XP, Vista, Windows 7), but does vary slightly from one release to the
next.
Windows 7
^^^^^^^^^
Windows 7 has using a projector in mind. Simply connect your projector and
press the **Windows key and tap P**.
The more traditional way is also fairly straight forward. Go to the control
panel and click on display. This will open up the Display options. You can
also bypass this step by right click on a blank area on your desktop and
selecting **resolution**.

Then click on the Screen Resolution from the left pane.

Then enable your projector and ensure your desktop is extended.
Windows Vista
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
From the control panel click on personalize, or right click a blank place on
the desktop and click personalization.

From the **Personalization** window click on Display Settings.

Then enable the montior that represents your projector an make sure your
you have checked Extend the desktop.
Windows XP
^^^^^^^^^^
From the control panel select Display, or right click on a blank area of the
desktop and select properties. From the properties window click on the settings
tab.
.. image:: /pics/xpdisplaysettings.png
Then enable the monitor that represents your projector an make sure your
you have checked Extend the desktop.
Linux
-----
Due to the vast varieties of hardware, distributions, desktops, and drivers
this is not an exhaustive guide to dual monitor setup on Linux. This guide
assumes that you have properly set up any proprietary drivers if needed. You
should seek out your distributions documentation if this general guide does not
work.
GNOME
^^^^^
This guide is for users of the GNOME desktop who do not use proprietary drivers.
From most distros go to System --> Preferences --> Display Settings (Monitors)
.. image:: /pics/gnome.png
Setup your projector with the correct resolution and make sure you do **not**
have mirrored desktop enabled (same image on all monitors).
KDE
^^^
This guide is for users of the KDE desktop who do not use proprietary drivers.
From most distros click the Kick Off menu and navigate to **system settings**
.. image:: /pics/kdesystemsettings.png
Click on the display and monitor icon.
.. image:: /pics/kdedisplay.png
From here you will need to set up your projector with the appropriate
resolution, and position. OpenLP works best projecting to the monitor on the
right.
