An information handling system display has a joystick input device that manages selections from an on screen menu with plural joystick input device inputs to navigate from a root menu to a command a function. A one-action function menu is selectable to manage inputs made at the joystick input device so that each of the up, down, left and right joystick inputs commands a function with a single press and a press down joystick input returns the on screen display menu to offer other input options with multiple inputs. The one-action joystick inputs are configurable through the root menu so that an end user can select which commands are quickly available, such as input source selection or picture in picture activation.

An information handling system display has a foldable display panel that incrementally transitions between a flat and fully curved configuration with an amount of curve set based on one or more of plural conditions, such as a distance to a view, an application selected to present visual information, a location and size of visual information presented in a window or other partial area of the display panel, a type of input device or other factors. An end user may configure the display to adjust display panel curve radius as desired by personal preference, and the display panel tracks manual curvature selections by an end user to adapt automatically to the end user's preferences.

A display keyboard video mouse (KVM) switch detects cables connected to ports of the display and compares the cable types against a configuration table to select a configuration user interface for presentation at the display retrieved from non-transitory memory of the display by a processing resource of the KVM switch. As an end user adjusts the cables connected to the display KVM switch, logic executing on the display adjusts the presentation of the configuration user interface to guide connections with plural information handling systems based upon the cable types and to confirm correct association of keyboard and mouse inputs through the KVM switch with each information handling system.

Display

A display, such as a computer monitor, presents a user interface having static and dynamic icons that define inputs made at a joystick input device. For example, a first static icon associates with a first input button to always command a menu presentation, and a second static icon associates with a second input button to always command an exit from the user interface. Plural dynamic icons associate with third and fourth input buttons that scroll the dynamic icons to populate a central input button of the joystick input device. A press at the central input button selects a function associated with the dynamic icon presented at the central input button.

An information handling system display swivel arm rotates about two axes with selectable amounts of rotation. The swivel arm couples to an anchor and a display support with a tool-less swivel coupling device having a member inserted into a housing and rotationally coupled in place by first and second pins that engage first and second slots of the member. The first slot is disposed around the circumference of the member to support substantially 360 degrees of rotation of the member in the housing. The second slot is disposed only part of the way around the circumference of the member to support partial rotation, such as 180 degrees. Removal of both pins from the member allows withdrawal of the member from the housing to disassemble the swivel arm.

Plural information handling system interfaces with a display through plural display ports result in selection at the display of a display source that presents display information and a display source selection user interface window. An end user seeking to charge a portable information handling system at a display port, such as a USB Type C port, can plug the portable information handling system into the display without disrupting presentation of display information by another information handling system that is interfaced with the display.

A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing an intelligent display device detection operation. With the intelligent display device detection operation even if a user has not turned on a second information handling system, the display device automatically switch a video input from a first information handling system to the second information handling system when the second information handling system is coupled to the display device. When the user powers on the second information handling system, a video stream provided by the second information handling system is immediately presented on the display device. In certain embodiments, the intelligent display device detection operation comprises one or more of a signal detection operation which detects which input port is transmitting a signal and a cable detection operation which detects which input port is coupled to a cable.
