Having become accustomed to the custom resolution options with the previous control panel, the new version doesn't seem to have all of the same features. Similar functionality is present in the standard Windows Display dialog, so this is basically redundant. This section is a straightforward menu that allows you to configure your display configuration if you use multiple displays. This section gives you control over several color settings to fine tune your display image. Here we see a simple menu to change screen resolution and color quality, as well as the refresh rate.
The end result of the display optimization wizard is that some people will get slightly better colors for their display, but it's not the same as professional color calibration tools. The gamma correction page is also a bit confusing, as the boxes don't actually slide left/right instead, you click and drag and the color bars change while your mouse cursor moves and the white box remains in the center of the display. It should be noted that 100% contrast setting is not always ideal on every display. Telling you to "set the color temperature to the value that most accurately represents white" when the majority of the screen is black is also less than useful.Īfter another helpful preparation screen, you get to optimize the brightness and gamma levels of your display. That's not particularly helpful, and the text could be better at explaining what you're supposed to do. We found this screen to be a little confusing, but basically what it's saying is that you should use the controls of your display to set the temperature to what you find appropriate. If you choose one of the displays as being a flat panel, you get an extra two screens for flat panel optimization. (We would recommend choosing flat panel regardless, if you want to use the test pattern to try and align the image on a CRT display.)įirst you get the introduction, followed by your display(s). The following nine screenshots show the steps of the wizard, though the flat panel display calibration step is skipped for non-flat panel displays. This item offers a wizard to help you optimize your display.
Under the display menu, we see a section for appearance, and multiple displays.
