[Notebook] ScreenXpert 3 - Introduction

In the past, ScreenXpert 2 was used as an application to support and assist ASUS dual-screen models but now we have ScreenXpert 3 expanded its support so that general users can also use it on general single-screen models. We hope to provide users of ASUS models with a more efficient experience when dealing with multi-window-related operations. In the single-screen version of ScreenXpert 3, we combine the most popular design language with functional elements of ScreenXpert in the past, provide a quick entrance on the home screen of the user's model, and display all the ScreenXpert functions we have prepared for single-screen models. Users can also adjust and select the list of functions presented on it from settings, which we believe it can provide users with higher flexibility and operation experience.

FAQ

1. Q: The ScreenPad is blinking when 1) I plug in/remove the power source ,2) plug the external screen into my laptop and remove, or 3) when the laptop wakes up or restarts. Is it the normal situation?

A: It is normal that ScreenPad is defined as the external screen of the system, and when you do the above actions, you will let the operating system detect the screen hardware, which will cause the screen to be black or flash. Similar flickers occur when your la[top uses an HDMI external screen.

2. Q: Is it normal for your laptop make sounds when powered-off and powered on, or when ScreenPad switches to laptop Screen Only mode?
A: It is normal phenomenon. To make ScreenPad more power-saving, ScreenPad is power-off when it's not used, turn on. This tone is a power-on tone When the laptop uses USB external device, there will be a similar tone.

3. Q: What should I do when the ScreenPad resolution (2160x1080) is higher than the resolution of an app?
A: It is recommended to use 1000x500 resolution and 2160x1080 resolution in special situations such as watching movies.

4. Q: When using the ScreenPad, the text appears blurry.
A: The ScreenPad resolution can be adjusted to 2160 x 1080, which is 2K resolution. You can also manually adjust the resolution in your laptop's Display Settings.

5. Q: When I watch a movie, sometimes I feel a slight lag, what do I do?
A: In the ScreenPad settings you can adjust the screen refresh rate, the factory default 50Fps, which is based on power saving considerations. You can manually change to 60Fps so there isn't any lag.

6. Q: When an app is displayed full-screen on ScreenPad, system notifications (such as headphone plug-in, etc.) are hidden, what should I do?
A: To locate the hidden notification feature (Windows 1903 version), please right-click the Start menu, select System and go into Focus Assistant to set full-screen mode to still receive notifications.

7. Q: Mouse down on ScreenPad is not easy to find, what should I do?
A: When using the Home screen instead of using ScreenPad, you can temporarily switch to TouchPad Mode via the TouchPad icon or the F6 shortcut.

8. Q: When setting "only second screen" by setting the "Fn" and "F8" shortcut when the function key is locked, the main screen is displayed on the ScreenPad, when the external monitor is connected and "only second screen" is switched. Is it OK that the picture is still displayed on the ScreenPad instead of the external monitor?

A: Because the system defines ScreenPad as the second screen and the external display as the third screen, the main screen display is normal on screenpad when switching "only second screen" mode. You can go to Show Settings to adjust the screen order settings.

9. Q: What can I do to switch other modes by setting "Computer Screen Only" by setting "Fn" and "F8" shortcuts when the function key is locked, and then using "Win + P" may not be effective?
A: Due to the "Computer Screen Only" mode ScreenPad power loss, please go to the Display Settings to adjust the screen order settings and use the F6 shortcut (or function key lock with the "Fn" and "F6" shortcut) to switch mode. To avoid this, you can update the ScreenXpert driver to 1.0.26.0, the ScreenXpert App to 1.0.20.0 or higher.

10. Q: What if I switch the display screen with the F8 shortcut (or the function key lock when you lock it) and get stuck in "Only Second Screen" or "Computer Screen Only"?
A: Because "Computer Screen Only" mode will power off the ScreenPad, re-powering back to the pre-power-off state, and the F8 shortcut can only be switched sequentially, so it is stuck between "second screen only" or "computer screen only" mode. At this point, please switch to another mode by "Win + P", or use the F6 shortcut (or the "Fn" and "F6" shortcut when the function key is locked). To avoid this, you can update the ScreenXpert driver to 1.0.26.0 and the ScreenXpert App to 1.0.20.0 or higher.

11. Q: When I play the game on the full screen, if I touch the second screen, the game will automatically jump back to the desktop?

A: If you want to use the second screen synchronously when you play the game on the main screen, it is recommended that the main screen enters the window mode (including the infinite mode); if you do not need to use the second screen, in the full screen mode, in order to avoid accidental touch, it is recommended to close the second screen.

12. Q: Why do I open my laptop after it goes to sleep, and the window originally displayed on the second screen will be displayed on the main screen?

A: In order to make the model with the ScreenPad more power-saving, the system is designed to be powered off when the ScreenPad is not in use, and is powered on when it is turned on. Therefore, when the notebook is sleeped, the window displayed on the second screen will be transferred to the main screen display due to the power failure of the second screen.

13. Q: The ScreenPad will blink a few times when the notebook is turned on. Is this normal?

A: It is normal, if your notebook uses HDMI external screen, the external screen will also flash, the same reason.

14. Q: When dragging some Microsoft applications on the main screen, you may not be able to open the two functions of "Windows Switcher" and "Add to Launcher". Why?

A: The reason why some Microsoft applications do not have open permissions. however, ASUS provides other alternatives. For details, refer to this article "Drag the window on the main screen."

15. Q: Why is it that after my laptop updates the Windows system, I find that ScreenXpert cannot start automatically after booting up? Why?

A: The startup of ScreenXpert requires the support of Windows Service. the service startup speed of the upgraded Windows system is slower than that of ScreenXpert, which will cause ScreenXpert to fail to start automatically. solution as below :

1. Manually open ScreenXpert after the laptop is turned on.

2. Roll back the system. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update, Click on "Recovery" in Left hand column, Click “Get Started” under Go Back to the Previous Version of Windows 10.
