Your Fire GL provides dual display functionality from a single

video card. This new technology changes the way you view

your PC and video graphics.

seamless multiple display desktop. Multiple monitor display

works as one large work area. A single application can span all

monitors or many applications can occupy its own specific

monitor. This feature will take your PC’s graphics and video

How to Use ATI

HYDRAVISION™

HYDRAVISION™ software is specifically designed for use

with Windows® NT, Windows® 2000 and Windows® XP Pro.

HYDRAVISION™ installation enables the Desktop Manager

and creates a Windows® program group for

HYDRAVISION™ display management software.

HYDRAVISION™ is activated whenever Windows® starts..

The ATI® HYDRAVISION™ Desktop Manager allows you to

modify your display options. You can access the Desktop

Management and Hot Keys dialog boxes by clicking on

the appropriate tab in the Desktop Manager.

Along the bottom of each ATI® HYDRAVISION™ dialog are

four buttons: OK, Cancel, Apply and Help.

OK implements the changes you’ve made in the ATI®

HYDRAVISION™ dialog and exits the Desktop Manager.

Changes take effect immediately unless you see a message

prompting you to restart your computer.

Cancel discards

all

changes made to any section of

the ATI® HYDRAVISION™ dialog and closes the Desktop

Manager.

Apply implements your changes without closing the

Desktop Manager.

Help connects to either local or on-line HTML-based

help. You can also get context -sensitive on-screen help by

moving your mouse over the relevant text for each control.

Desktop Management Controls

The Desktop Management dialog lets you determine the

behavior of pop-up windows and dialog boxes in a multiple

monitor environment.

Dialog control:

Enable dialog repositioning—Toggles dialog control on and

off. When it is checked, you can choose to have dialog boxes

appear on the parent application’s monitor (The parent

application is the application that generated the dialog box.). If

the parent application or associated monitor cannot be located,

the dialog box defaults to monitor 1. You can also choose to

have dialog boxes appear on the monitor in which the cursor is

located or to always appear on a specific monitor in the array.

8 Using ATI HYDRAVISION™

Window control:

Single monitor windows—When this box is checked, windows

are sized no larger than a single monitor. Windows that are

placed on monitor splits are automatically relocated to the

monitor on which most of the window appears.

Max Button Management—Allows you to control the

behavior of the Windows® Maximize button. When ATI®

HYDRAVISION™ is running, a HYDRAVISION

Max/Restore button appears in the upper right corner of your

application title bars. Clicking this icon makes the active

window maximize in one of the following ways:

- Max to window corners causes windows to maximize to

the monitor(s) that contain the window’s upper left and

lower right corners.

- Max to full desktop causes windows to maximize to the

entire monitor array.

- Max to current monitor causes windows to maximize to

the current monitor.

Max child windows—Keeps windows generated by parent

applications from splitting across monitors (A child window is a

window residing within a parent application window.). The

ability to keep child windows on a single monitor when

maximized is extremely useful for editing multiple documents

side by side in a parent application.

Note:

ATI® HYDRAVISION™ application title bar icon

changes from a single square to two smaller squares

when a window is in a ATI® HYDRAVISION™

maximized state. Clicking the icon again restores the

The active window to its default state as a single

square

video devices will be disabled. Please note that Extended
