Abstract
A UHD display presents multiple video windows and a control device enables a user to establish the layout of the windows, either by selecting from templates of predetermined layouts or by constructing a custom layout. The UHD display can communicate messages to the control device if a particular layout fails to conform to predetermined rules depending on the types of applications to be presented in the various windows.
