Display configurations based on applications

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium encoded with instructions executable by a processor of a computing system having a main display and a projected display having a touch interface, the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising:

• instructions to execute an application that uses the main display, the projected display, and an additional external display connected to the computing system, wherein the projected display comprises a built-in projector over the main display that projects an image onto a touch sensitive mat coupled to the main display;
• instructions to execute an automatic display configuration application in response to the application being executed;
• instructions to obtain a list of displays that include the main display, the projected display, and the external display and display data associated with the list of displays;
• instructions to configure the main display, the projected display, and the external display in an extended display configuration of a combined single display and in accordance with a display configuration request associated with the application and based on the display data that is obtained, wherein the display configuration request comprises setting the main display as a primary display, setting the projected display as a first secondary display that is located directly below the main display and setting the external display as a second secondary display that is located to a right side of the main display;
• and
• instructions to check that the pixel (0,0) in the external display is an uppermost left corner of the combined single display, a center pixel of the main display is a center of the combined single display, and a last pixel is a lowermost right corner of the combined single display.

An apparatus, comprising:

• a main display;
• a projected display having a touch interface, wherein the projected display comprises a built-in projector over the main display that projects an image onto a touch interface comprising a touch sensitive mat coupled to the main display;
• a computer readable storage medium storing instructions for an automatic display configuration application;
• and
• a processor in communication with the main display, the projected display, and the computer readable storage medium, wherein the processor is to execute a display configuration request from the automatic display configuration application when an external display is detected and an application that uses the main display, the projected display, and the external display is executed, wherein the display configuration request comprises setting the main display as a primary display, setting the projected display as a first secondary display that is located directly below the main display and setting the external display as a second secondary display that is located to a right side of the main display in an extended display configuration of a combined single display and to check that the pixel (0,0) in the external display is an uppermost left corner of the combined single display, a center pixel of the main display is a center of the combined single display, and a last pixel is a lowermost right corner of the combined single display.
