</div>Close. A few things:<br>

I would move the list of activities to the top right, using a drop-down list.<br></blockquote><div><br>I tried, but such layout look unbalanced. Those 2 lines of preferences gives just the right weight for the UI.<br><br>

</div>Always. Because of how other interfaces work on past experience,<br>
users are unlikely to try to interact with the screens unless they<br>
have some clear indicitation that they should<br></blockquote><div><br>The difference with previous experiences - current mock has close to no options that user could try to change. In combination with the size (like 60-70% of window) is preview widget, I personally believe there is no way user wont try to hover the monitors. Otherwise there is nothing else to do. In unknown situations people just starts experimenting<br>

</div>If they are different sizes, the smaller one would be on top always.<br>
Otherwise it would probably show as a "clone display" rather than<br>
showing the individual displays.<br></blockquote><div><br>Alternate layout for cloned mode added in the mock. <br></div></div>
