Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry. This can be done in two ways. First make a copy of your current project for testing. In your test project, go to Settings>>Project>>Idle & Zoom and set the Zoom factor to 100% times the number of displays of the same resolution. Then, go to Settings>>Client >>System and set "Behavior on multiple displays" to "Content is stretched over all displays". Save, Publish and test.

An alternative way: Multiply or sum the resolution of all of your monitors to get a final resolution of a virtual screen (width by X monitors, height by ...). In your test project, go to View (top right)>>Resolution/Zoom and enter a Custom (combined) resolution of all screens:

- Width 7680, Height 4320 [4 x HD Landscape screens]

Click OK and manually adjust the contents of your project, if they did not adjust automatically. Go to Settings>>Client >>System and set "Behavior on multiple displays" to "Content is stretched over all displays". Save, Publish and test.

Best regards,
Andre.

Hello,

This can still be achieved with the method above where you will have one page being displayed and place 4 webpage elements in equal quadrants of the entire page. With the display spanned across all devices, only one element will be viewable on each display.

If you prefer to go the route of the display conditions, where only one element or page is displayed for that particular screen, more instructions will be emailed to you, once confirmed. The current limit is conditionals for 2 displays. See tutorial on Display Conditions: https://www.sitekiosk.com/tutorials/

Best regards,
Andre.

Adrea, Thanks for your reply but would like to use seperate conditions for all 4 displays as may require diffrent refresh or diffrent mutiples of items on each screen, could you email the intructions if this is possible to get the four running independetly on the same client machine.

Hello,

Thank you for your patience. There is no other alternative. If you would like to go the display conditions route to display on 4 screens, you will need a second client (and second project) to complement using separate pages on four screens. This will require you to increase your license to support the second device.

You can purchase more licenses at the Online Shop - https://www.sitekiosk.com/web/Shop/Shop.aspx?GroupIdx=1 or you can contact Sales for more inquires - sales-america(at)sitekiosk.com

Best regards,
Andre.
