Screens

With more than one screen, you can give each program a tile opens its own screen: RoomCaddie moves the program there when it opens and keeps it there. RoomCaddie opens on the main display unless you choose another screen for it. Your room's theme can show behind your programs on the screens you choose. You can also choose a screen for programs RoomCaddie doesn't start, like a launch monitor's own launcher or a startup app. With one screen, nothing changes, and the editor shows no screen choice.

• Turn on and connect every screen first. RoomCaddie lists the screens currently connected.
• RoomCaddie opens on the screen you choose under RoomCaddie opens on. Programs with no screen chosen open on the main display.

See which screen is which

1. Open the editor and press Settings….
2. Tap Screens to open its settings. The Screens on this PC row shows each screen's number and name and marks the main display.
3. Press Identify screens. Every other screen shows its number for 5 seconds, and RoomCaddie's screen shows its own number in a corner.

Choose the screen RoomCaddie opens on

1. In Settings…, tap Screens to open the page.
2. Under RoomCaddie opens on, tap a screen. RoomCaddie moves there right away and opens there from then on.

If that screen is unplugged or off, RoomCaddie opens on the main display and tells you. It moves back automatically when the screen reconnects. Touch Controls can share RoomCaddie's screen. It covers RoomCaddie while it is open.

Put a tile's program on a screen

1. In the editor, open the tile and find the program's card.
2. Under Which screen, tap the screen you want. The line below tells you where the program goes.

To send the program to the main display the next time it starts, tap the screen marked "main". A window that is already open stays where it is. The card has its own Identify screens button.

Put a program RoomCaddie doesn't start on a screen

1. Open the program as you normally do so its window is open.
2. In RoomCaddie, open the editor and press Settings…. Tap Screens to open its settings, find the Add a program RoomCaddie doesn't start row, then press Add….
3. Under "1. Pick it from what's open right now", tap the program. Each row shows its name and where it comes from: its file name, the browser it runs in as an app, or "Windows app".
4. Under "2. Which screen", tap the screen you want, then press Save.

From then on, RoomCaddie puts the program on that screen whenever it opens and keeps it there, no matter how it starts.

Change or remove a program's screen

1. In Settings…, tap Screens to open its settings, then find the program's row under Programs RoomCaddie doesn't start.
2. Press Change screen…, tap the new screen and press Save. Or press Remove to have RoomCaddie leave the program wherever it opens.

Turn the theme on your other screens on or off

1. In Settings…, tap Screens to open it.
2. Press the switch beside Theme on your other screens. When the switch is off, your other screens show the Windows desktop.
3. When the switch is on, tap a screen under Screens with the theme to add or remove it.

RoomCaddie's own screen is grayed out in that row. The theme follows RoomCaddie when it moves. If a screen you chose isn't connected, its theme returns when it reconnects. Turning the switch off saves your choices for next time.

Show your room's name and logo on your other screens

1. In Settings…, tap Screens and make sure Theme on your other screens is on.
2. To show your room's name in the middle of each screen with the theme, in the theme's lettering, press the switch beside Room name.
3. To show your room logo above the name, at half the screen's height, press the switch beside Room logo.

Put Touch Controls on your touchscreen

1. Open the editor and press Settings…, then tap Screens.
2. Turn on Touch Controls, then choose your touchscreen under Touch Controls opens on.
3. Add a Touch Controls tile in the editor. The Touch Controls chapter shows you the steps and buttons.

• If you drag a program somewhere, it stays where you put it until it closes. The next time it opens, it returns to its screen.
• If a program's screen is off or unplugged, the program opens on the main display, and a note tells you why. As soon as the screen comes back, RoomCaddie moves the program there.
• If a program keeps moving itself off its screen, RoomCaddie tries five times to move it back, then stops and tells you.
• A program with no screen selected opens maximized on the main display. Three are left alone: a window that already fills the main display, a game that runs its own full-screen window, and the main golf program.
• RoomCaddie remembers an ordinary program by its file name. It remembers an app like Netflix by the app itself, not the browser it runs in, so your other browser windows never move.
• The Display, Volume, Sound and Settings tiles all open the same Windows Settings window. The tile you tap last puts that window on its screen. With no screen selected, Windows decides where it opens.
• A step that opens File Explorer or another Windows window has no screen choice. Windows decides where it goes.
• If a tile also opens a program from Programs RoomCaddie doesn't start, the program uses the tile's screen when the tile opens it.
• The theme on your other screens stays behind every program. Clicking it does nothing.
• Desktop icons stay hidden on screens with the theme while RoomCaddie is open. They return when you minimize or exit RoomCaddie, or turn off Theme on your other screens. To keep shortcuts on a screen's desktop, remove that screen under Screens with the theme.
• If you connect a screen while RoomCaddie is open, it shows the theme within a few seconds if you chose it under Screens with the theme. If your room was set up before 1.16 and you never changed Screens with the theme, any screen you connect shows it.
• Room name and Room logo appear only when Theme on your other screens is on. Changes you make to the name or logo in the editor appear on the screens with the theme within a few seconds.
• Room logo stays grayed out until you choose a logo in the editor's Room logo section. If the logo file is missing, the screens with the theme show only the name until you choose the logo again.

What you see	What to do
RoomCaddie opens on the wrong screen	Choose the screen you want under RoomCaddie opens on in Settings > Screens.
"Two screens look the same."	RoomCaddie can't tell two screens apart. Tap the screen you want in the row with this note. Under Screens with the theme, first remove the dashed screen by tapping it.
A grayed row in the Add… list	The window is part of another program, like a website in a browser, so RoomCaddie can't move it on its own. Make the website a tile and choose its screen under Which screen.
The program isn't in the Add… list	The list only shows programs with a window currently open. Open the program, press Cancel, then press Add… again.
"isn't connected right now"	That screen is off or unplugged. Turn it on. Until then, the program opens on the main display.
"RoomCaddie can't tell which" screen "you picked"	RoomCaddie can't tell two identical screens apart. Pick the screen again under Which screen, or use Change screen….
"kept moving off" its screen, "RoomCaddie stopped moving it back"	The program moves itself. Check the program's own settings for a screen or full-screen choice.
"The theme isn't showing on" a screen, "Restart RoomCaddie to restore it."	To restore the theme on that screen, open Settings…. Under Restart or exit, press Restart… beside Restart RoomCaddie.
