In some examples, a computing device can include a memory resource storing instructions to cause a processor resource to receive, from a first virtual machine assigned a first color gamut, display characteristics of a first display, display characteristics of a second display, or both. In some examples, the instructions can cause the processor resource to receive, from a second virtual machine assigned a second color gamut, the display characteristics of the first display, the display characteristics of the second display, or both, and determine, based on the first color gamut, the second color gamut, and the display characteristics, a color gamut mapping for the first color gamut and the second color gamut. In some examples, the instructions can cause the processor resource to map the first color gamut to the first display and map the second color gamut to the second display based on the color gamut mapping.

Color gamut mapping

In an example in accordance with the present disclosure, a computing device docking station is described. The computing device docking station includes a computing device port to receive a connector of a host computing device and a display device port to receive a connector of a display device. The computing device docking station also includes a dock management controller. The dock management controller is to 1) determine a status of the computing device docking station and 2) generate a notification indicating the status of the computing device docking station. The computing device docking station also includes a display controller to generate an on-screen display (OSD) presentation of the notification on the display device coupled to the display device port.

Docking station status notifications

An example display device includes a panel and a controller to define a boundary between a first region of an input layer of the panel and a second region of the input layer of the panel. The example controller disables digital ink input for the first region when the first region is designated for video output and the controller enables digital ink input for the second region when the second region is designated for receiving digital ink input.

Regions with digital ink input

In an example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a display panel is described including a set of high color gamut light emitting diodes (LEDs), a set of narrow color gamut LEDs, a light guide plate wherein the set of high color gamut LEDs alternate positions with the set of narrow color gamut LEDs, and a switch to toggle between the sets of LEDs.

High color and narrow color gamut display panel

In some examples, an electronic device includes a display panel comprising a plurality of pixels; and a controller to select a theme from a plurality of themes that specify respective different display characteristics of displayed content, and based on the selected theme, change a display resolution of the displayed content.

Changing display resolutions based on context

A technique includes, on an electronic device that includes a plurality of display panels that are mounted to allow physically positioning of the display panels to create a plurality of potential display configurations for the electronic device, sensing the display configuration associated with current positions of the display panels. A camera is mounted on a given display panel of the plurality of display panels, and the technique includes selecting a camera mode for the electronic device based at least in part on the sensed display configuration.

Electing camera modes for electronic devices having multiple display panels

In some examples, a non-transitory machine readable medium storing instructions executable by a processor to store display information in a private memory hidden from an operating system (OS), and divisibly virtualize a contiguous planar display into a first area as a main display and a second area as a second display separate from the main display, where the continuous planar display is divisibly virtualized responsive to exposure of the display information to the OS or the display information being directly provided to a graphics processing unit (GPU).

Private virtualized displays

A technique includes detecting a finger pattern that is associated with a physical interaction of a user with a touch screen of an electronic device. The technique includes acquiring sensory input that is associated with the user other than a characteristic of the physical interaction of the user with the touch screen. The technique includes determining whether the physical interaction is associated with an intent to use the touchscreen for key-based input entry based at least in part on the sensory input and controlling a user interface for the electronic device based at least in part on the detected finger pattern and the determined intent.

Controlling user interfaces for electronic devices

In some examples, an electronic device includes a display panel comprising a plurality of pixels; and a controller to, for achieving power saving at the electronic device, select a theme from a plurality of themes that specify respective different display characteristics of displayed content, the different display characteristics including different colors, and based on the selected theme, change a display characteristic of the displayed content, the changing of the display characteristic including changing a color displayed by a portion of the plurality of pixels from a first color to a second, different color.

Changing displayed colors to save power

Selecting camera modes for electronic devices having multiple display panels

A technique includes communicating a display device attachment status to an operating system to inform the operating system whether a first display device is attached to a second display device. The technique includes controlling content displayed on the second display device, including controlling whether the second display device is an extension of the first display device based at least in part on the display device attachment status.

Controlling content displayed on multiple display devices

In some examples, an electronic device includes a display panel comprising pixels, and a controller to receive an indication responsive to a user selection of a control element adjustable between settings corresponding to different display quality levels, and in response to the received indication, adjust a frequency of manipulation of the pixels to compensate for deterioration of the pixels.

Adjusting frequencies of manipulation of display pixels

A computing system includes a plurality of graphics controllers, a reserved memory region, a shadow memory region, and a system Basic Input Output System (BIOS). The reserved memory region is to store a plurality of video Basic Input Output System (BIOS) images. The shadow memory region is to store a selected video BIOS image corresponding to a selected graphics controller, such that the selected graphics controller is to display output in response to a service request for video BIOS services, without use of a graphics driver. The system BIOS is to enable changing the selected graphics controller, based on copying a video BIOS image from the reserved memory region to the shadow memory region.
