Question

3 monitors, 2 different resolutions - problem with displaying the preview in full screen

Hello!


I have an unusual problem. I recently replaced my entire PC setup to improve my work efficiency. Previously I used 3 monitors:


1. Main monitor with a resolution of 1920x1080
2.Two old side monitors with a resolution of 1280x1024 - one for the timeline, the other for effects control, media browser, etc.

And I had no problem previewing the footage in full screen on the main monitor.

 

Currently, after replacing my PC with a new one, I also invested in better monitors and now the set looks like this:

1. Main monitor with a resolution of 3840x2160

2. Two side monitors with a resolution of 2160x1440

*The workspace in premiere pro is organized exactly the same as in the previous set in terms of timeline arrangement, effects control etc.

 

Now, unfortunately, when I want to preview the movie on the main monitor, it only displays the preview on part of its working surface...

I have already tried various solutions and unfortunately nothing helps. As if Premiere Pro adjusted the preview size to suit the lower resolution of side monitors.

I want the full-screen video to be previewed on the main monitor due to its resolution and color parameters, etc.

 

Have any of you encountered such a problem and is there any reasonable solution?

I will be grateful for any advice on this topic!

    By full screen preview, are you maximizing the program panel ... the tilde key ... or do you mean the Transmit Out?

    Thank you for your answer, but I mean the full screen preview of the material I am working on via the "Toggle full screen" function/keyboard shortcut, and not maximizing the panel preview via the tilde key.

     

    Unfortunately, maximizing the panel is not what I care about because there are still interface elements that unnecessarily distract attention from the material.

     

    The strange thing is that I didn't have such a problem with the previous configuration of monitors with much more diverse resolutions.

     

    Now I noticed that if I drag all the windows of the premire pro interface to the main monitor, I can make a full-screen preview... But unfortunately this is not a very functional solution and I probably won't feel like dragging the windows every time I want to make a full-screen preview of the material.

    It's creating a floating panel?

    Unfortunately not. When I click the full screen view shortcut, it locks in there and I can't move it
