Found Way To Place Pinball Fx2 Dmd On Separate Monitor

OK so Ive created 2 monitor profiles one with my standard: play field - 1920x1080 32bit 0 rotation, back glass 1024 x 768 32bit and DMD 640 x 480 8 bit for VP and FP with a hot key of Ctl + Alt + 1 and another profile: play field - 1920x1080 32bit 90 rotation, back glass 1024 x 768 32bit and DMD 1280 x 1024 32 bit for PBFX2 with a hot key of Ctl + Alt + 2.

Next I placed the mirror window on my DMD display whilst in PBFX2 display mode and created a hot key of Ctl + Alt + 3 to enable and disable it. The mirror window gets lost if you switch between the 2 profiles due to the resolution change on the DMD monitor so it has to be enabled and disabled whilst in PBFX2 screen mode.

 So I made a basic script that loads the PBFX2 profile, DMD mirror window, Xpadder profile, PBFX Loader, sends mouse to press launch button and it works but that's as far as my scripting talents go! So what I relay need is a run wait process that will on exit close the DMD mirror, switch back to standard profile then load my standard xpadder profile.

 I think I can save the mirror window position to my PBFX2 profile by pressing on of the icons on the mirror window but I had to go to work befor I could test it!

A Rough video on how I set this up.

There was an update for FX2 that enables the DMD on a 2nd or 3rd screen.

It would be handy if someone could work out a way to send the signal to the pinDMD....

I'd probably play it then... LOL
