If its possible for these to be changes that would be brillant.<br />

Hi superm401,

Cheers that worked for me.

The settings I need to change are to set "Use this device as the primary monitor" and "Extend my Windows Desktop onto this monitor"

If its possible for these to be changes that would be brillant.

I found some API documentation (<a href="http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/ms533235.aspx" rel="ugc">http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/ms533235.aspx</a>) that allows you to change the primary monitor. &nbsp;I can't figure out how you would change the &quot;extend my windows Desktop&quot;. &nbsp;I think the primary monitor part could probably be handled by making a quick C application to use the API functions, then calling it with Runtime.exec, since no parameters need be passed and a JNI isn't really more elegant.

Hey Experts,<br />
<br />
Any way to access the Display Properties panel in Windows and change settings.<br />
Maybe I need a do this in C++/MFC's and write a JNIWrapper for this allowing me to access using Java?<br />
<br />
I can make the Panel appear using the following command in a .bat file and forcing that to run:<br />
Rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL<wbr /> Desk.cpl,@0, 3<br />
<br />
Any ideas??<br />

Access the Display Properties Panel in Windows

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
