>The second line is also required on Titan Mobile and TitanOne to either open or close the additional application window; it should not be used on consoles as they don't work the same way and so may cause unexpected results.

===== Explanation =====

This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to [[:macros:formats_and_syntax#xml_format|Formats and syntax]]

  * ''ActionScript.SetProperty("System.ExternalDisplay.Enabled", true)'' sets the system property
  * ''PanelManager.SetScreenState("externalDisplay", 0, System.ExternalDisplay.Enabled)'' actually enables the display/window
