Windows 7 Beta Display enhancements

Projecting in Windows 7 beta is really quick and simple. Pressing Win+P would give you the following pop-up menu.

The Win+P Projector Settings window allows you to quickly switch display settings.

Use the arrow keys (or keep pressing Win+P) to switch to “clone”, “extend” or “external only” display settings. You can access the application from displayswitch.exe

If you want broader control over presentation settings, you can also press Win+X to open the Windows Mobility Center, which allows you to turn on a presentation “mode” that switches IM clients to do not disturb, disables screensavers, sets a neutral wallpaper etc. (Note that this feature is also available in Windows Vista.)
