I previously used group policy to prevent wallpaper changes, however this is still possible using IE or irfanview. However the wallpaper tab on display properties does not allow changing - even though I have reset the group policy.

Ultramon will not allow me to span the same wallpaper over my laptop and viewsonic 19"lcd. However it is quite happy to use seperate images on both.

Is this problem associated with the group policy?

Thanks in advance.

Most likely not if UltraMon wallpapers otherwise work correctly.

What happens if you select the 'one background/image for the whole desktop' option?

If I pick the "one background/image" option, Ultramon shows a preview of the wallpaper stretched across both screens - which is correct. However, if I then apply this option, the wallpaper is cleared from the desktop completely and a plain colour desktop is left - no wallpaper.

I can grab a screen image showing the preview and the plain colour image thats left if you need?!

Most likely UltraMon fails to stretch the image for some reason when creating the wallpaper.

Please try if you have the same problem with other images as well, for example smaller or larger ones, or a different image format (JPEG, BMP, etc).

You can also send me the image you're using to support@realtimesoft.com and I'll try to reproduce the issue.
