Step-by-step instructions
- Connect with a direct DisplayPort cable.
- Enable DDC/CI on the monitor.
- Restart the app and inspect detected screens.
- Try an alternate cable or port if needed.
Why this matters
Change one variable at a time, then retest. Monitor menus, cables, adapters and graphics drivers can all affect display-control behavior.
DisplayPort can carry DDC/CI commands, but support varies with adapters, monitors, and driver combinations. This procedure is relevant to twinkle tray displayport on Windows 10 or Windows 11. Avoid assuming that settings on one display will apply identically to another model.
How to verify the result
Retest the exact scenario that failed originally, then document the cable, monitor model and software version if the problem continues.
