Hello!
Im a bit of a newbie but i was wondering.
Is it possible to have a 24" with a resolution of 1900*1200. And two 17" rotated 90degrees, on each side of the 24"? Or must all the screens be of same size and resolution?


-------17"------------------24"-----------------17"
_________--_______________---________

If you're using a TH2Go, all of the screens must be the same size and resolution. If you're using SoftTH, then I believe what you're attempting to do is possible (as you can mix/match resolutions).

SoftTH acted a bit quirky when I tried this about a year ago. It had to do with the rotation and the difference in the pixel heights on the displays. Made for some screwy cursor settings in SoftTH. Hopefully that has improved since I last did this though.

What about using two 19" monitors on the sides?

You're not understanding what I mean. What was confusing matters was the rotation and the difference between 1280 and 1200. This issue wouldn't change between a 19" and a 17". The only way to really know would be to experiment. The 17" I had aligned quite well as far as screen size with a 24", so that would be the right display size for rotated use with a 24".
