Auxiliary display scaling factor
One embodiment provides a method, including: displaying, on a primary display of an information handling device, an object having a predetermined size; adjusting, based on user input, a position of the object from the primary display to an auxiliary display; and maintaining, based on a scaling factor applied to the auxiliary display, the predetermined size of the object on the auxiliary display. Other aspects are described and claimed.
1. A method, comprising:
displaying, on a primary display of an information handling device, an object having a predetermined size;
adjusting, based on user input, a position of the object from the primary display to an auxiliary display, wherein the adjusting comprises removing the object from primary display and presenting the object on the auxiliary display; and
maintaining, based on a scaling factor applied to the auxiliary display, the predetermined size of the object on the auxiliary display;
wherein the auxiliary display is integrated into the information handling device and wherein the auxiliary display comprises at least one of: different physical dimensions than the primary display and a different resolution than the primary display.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the scaling factor is automatically adjusted responsive a change in the scaling of the primary display.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary display is located on a different portion of the information handling device than the primary display.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the different portion is associated with a base portion comprising a keyboard.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary display is located on another display device operatively coupled to the information handling device.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the object comprises at least two objects.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the maintaining comprises maintaining the predetermined sizes for each of the at least two objects on the auxiliary display.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising disabling, based on selection of a user option, the scaling factor.
9. An information handling device, comprising:
a primary display;
an auxiliary display;
a processor;
a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processor to:
display, on the primary display, an object having a predetermined size;
adjust, based on user input, a position of the object from the primary display to the auxiliary display, wherein the adjusting comprises removing the object from primary display and presenting the object on the auxiliary display; and
maintain, based on a scaling factor applied to the auxiliary display, the predetermined size of the object on the auxiliary display;
wherein the auxiliary display is integrated into the information handling device and wherein the auxiliary display comprises at least one of: different physical dimensions than the primary display and a different resolution than the primary display.
10. The information handling device of claim 9 , wherein the scaling factor is automatically adjusted responsive to a change in the scaling of the primary display.
11. The information handling device of claim 9 , wherein the auxiliary display is located on a different portion of the information handling device than the primary display.
12. The information handling device of claim 9 , wherein the auxiliary display is located on another display device.
13. The information handling device of claim 9 , wherein the object comprises at least two objects.
14. The information handling device of claim 13 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor to maintain comprise instructions executable by the processor to maintain the predetermined sizes for each of the at least two objects on the auxiliary display.
15. The information handling device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to disable, based on selection of a user option, the scaling factor.
16. A product, comprising:
a non-transitory storage device that stores code, the code being executable by a processor and comprising:
code that displays, on a primary display, an object having a predetermined size;
code that adjusts, based on user input, a position of the object from the primary display to an auxiliary display, wherein the adjusting comprises removing the object from primary display and presenting the object on the auxiliary display; and
code that maintains, based on a scaling factor applied to the auxiliary display, the predetermined size of the object on the auxiliary display;
wherein the auxiliary display is integrated into the information handling device and wherein the auxiliary display comprises at least one of: different physical dimensions than the primary display and a different resolution than the primary display.
