Post Win 11 update - individual camera windows not opening

Post by toejam »

I just went through the Windows 11 update on my pc. I currently have about 15 cameras being monitored. If I double click on a camera bi used to open a full screen view of the camera. Now it simply does nothing. If I select "solo selected camera" I can get the full screen view of each camera, but, I never had to do this before Win 11.

Don't know if this is a new Win 11 feature, but, thought it might be nice for the community to know.

Also set the "Maximize Frame" option and can get the cameras to open full screen. I've not changed my settings in several weeks prior to updating to win 11, so, not sure what's changed in my system (other than win 11). In any event, I have 2 methods to get the response I originally had, so, this works for me.

What's it say in Global settings -> cameras -> Dbl click?

Help...p 97
By default a double-click will open the camera individually temporarily full-screen. While in temporary full-screen mode, use the arrow keys to select another camera. Use Esc or the right-click menu options to exit full-screen. Use Pause to toggle between paused indefinitely and to cancel pause—this is equivalent to setting the Shield icon red, but for this camera only. The Temporary single-camera layout option temporarily enables the “solo” feature where only the selected camera is displayed—use Esc to return to normal.
