# A strip for every display

With Scrolling Windows on, each display keeps its own strip, focus and scroll position. Send a window to the next display, go with it or stay where you are, and switch Scrolling Windows off for any display. To arrange the monitors themselves, see Display arrangement.

- **Send, and follow or stay:** ⌃⌥N sends the focused window to the next display and follows it; ⌃⌥⇧N sends it and keeps you here.
- **Off for one display:** A display set to Off is left alone, and windows you send on skip it.
- **Strip or grid:** Each display can run a strip or a grid of its own.

**Scrolling Windows is optional.** It stays off until you turn it on. While it's on, window snapping and automatic window snapshots pause, and restoring a workspace turns it off; the strip saves its own session instead.
