Multi screen

Keep one photo on a second screen

Keep one photo up on the television or a second monitor while you go on browsing for the next one: press F2 to pin it.

A static screen shows the pinned photo and keeps showing it until you pin another.

Pinning

  • Press F2 or Insert in the grid, the viewer, a popup window or anywhere else in the app. The photo you are looking at becomes the static photo.
  • Or right-click a single photo and choose Pin to static screen. This pins the photo you right-clicked, even if the highlight is somewhere else.

The photo stays on every Static screen until you pin another one. A notice says what was pinned.

Setting a screen to Static

Pinning does nothing visible until a screen is in Static mode. In Screens ▸ Setup, drag the Static mode box onto a screen. When no screen is set to Static yet, the pin's notice says so and points there.

A stats screen switched to follows static describes the pinned photo instead of the live one.
