Dual Screen Use

PostSat Sep 01, 2018 6:13 am

Hello, I am using Davinci Resolve 15 Studio version. I work in dual screen mode, my problem is, anytime I want to see my screen I cannot minimize the software, instead I have to close the program!
Any help please.

Which OS? What hardware (CPU, GPU, i/o)?

In Windows, you can always use Alt-Tab to switch between apps. On Mac OS, I tend to use multiple desktops, so I just move over to a different desktop when I'm running another app in the background or need to move around some files or answer an email.

Thanks for the info.
I am using windows 10, so there is no "minimize" choise, right?

My advice would be to just change desktops or use Alt-Tab to switch applications. Resolve wants to basically take over the entire screen, which I believe is how it's designed. You can also turn off Full Screen under the Workspace menu and see if this does what you need.
