    11Hi Tom,
    22
    3 I haven\u2019t been back at Slac yet, and the person I asked there to test has not gotten back about it. I\u2019ll try to follow up with them, but if not I\u2019ll be back there in about two weeks if not too late.

    5 I realized it may be tricky to actually find out the display name... I realized in using mine at home that it doesn\u2019t display the name if it recognizes the display, it only displays it if it doesn\u2019t? Any quick ways to make ChimeraX show the name of the one I am using at home? (A side quest I suppose)

    77Thinking of it more, it may be that the names will not always be the same, like with the Acers that I use... If you remember the following from a previous ticket:
     
    1212We guessed it was likely because I connected my computer to one 3D display, it had the standard name, then I connected to the second, and then it had the same name but with a 1 at the beginning.

    14 So perhaps in general the names will not always be the same even for the same display. I wonder if you could instead look for a pattern like \u2019SR Display\u2019 for Sony, or \u2018ASV\u2019 for Acer in the name, since these are the primary ones for now, and ignore the rest?

    16 But anyway, I am curious to try on the positioning to see how it goes, soon\u2026.
