Re: Two monitors, two wallpaper?

Correct in that Windows does not support different wallpapers on multiple
monitors. The stretch function always scales the wallpaper for the primary
monitor*. Otherwise the wallpaper is always scaled the same on both
monitors (which makes them look different sizes).

*Where the dual head installation supports primary/secondary monitors (which
the ATI Radeon does). The windows native dual graphics support treats the
second monitor as an extended desktop and will stretch the wallpaper over
both monitors, each showing a portion of it.

Thank you for corroborating my observations, M.I.5¾. Please see my
other posts in this thread. DisplayFusion supports two different
wallpaper images, each stretched independently for its own monitor.
