Display Toggle - request for more functionality

Hi, 

I'm an audio engineer using Pro Tools on a Mac

I have three screens: Main Screen 1,  Extended onto Screen 2 and a small supplementary screen for audio metering on Screen 3 

Using display toggle I can switch off screen 3 so that "display toggle" toggles between 1 or  2 and then ALL 3 ( this omits screen 3 to being used on its own) . But this function only gives me EITHER    Screen1    OR Screen2   OR      ALL 3  ) .

What I'd like to see is  "display toggle"  being able be programmed  to toggle between 1+2 (as a group of  two joined screens -  omitting screen 3 )  and then back to  ALL 3.

I am accustomed to using my large Wacom to cover 2 large screens but not the third screen below; in ALL mode I lose so much tablet space to a screen a rarely have to access that my usable tablet space is halved in size.

The other option would be to rewrite the control panel for "Portion mode" -  because as far as I can see you can only select a portion of one screen NOT a "portion" that contains 2 whole screens omitting the third.

PS Please bring back a physical mouse option to the Intuos pro and I'd even upgrade my current Wacom.

Best 

Jon

  Hi Jon, 

  Thanks a lot for this suggestion and for going into detail why this feature would matter to you. This really helps.

  I have forwarded this to the driver developers. 

  Cheers
