Abstract
Transitions between monitor configurations may be streamlined by minimizing the tearing down and recreating of render targets and primary frame buffers associated with the monitors. In at least one example, the techniques described herein include identifying at least one render target in a first monitor configuration that is also in a second monitor configuration. In response to identifying the at least one render target in the first monitor configuration that is also in the second monitor configuration, the techniques herein describe maintaining the at least one render target during a transition between the first monitor configuration to second monitor configuration.
