dual display working: possible to swap displays?

[kakariki]

Hello,

I have dual monitors working with NVidia drivers, but I am wondering if it is possible to swap the displays so that the taskbar and desktop are on my other monitor (that is, swap screen 0 and 1 so that 1 is the primary display). Has anyone done this?

Thank you.

Hi
You should be able to do this with the nvidia-settings utility. Select
the display and check the box to make it the primary one.

Thank you, the screenshot was helpful.
Seems I had to switch to TwinView mode to get the checkbox (had it set up as “separate displays”.
All going now, many thanks.

Hi
A picture says a thousand words Glad you have it sorted. You know
you could have just created another panel and added the items you
wanted?
