After you successfully create a new Display Surface, it is added to the list of available Display
Surfaces in the Site Configuration File. It is now available for use when launching a visualization
job.
Now consider the example display_d from Table 2-2 of a 2W x 2 H Display Surface as shown
in Figure 2-6. In this case, each display block has a 2 W x 1 H configuration using two display
devices. This example uses two display blocks to create a Display Surface that contains two pairs
of display devices — one pair above the other. Each pair of display devices maps to a single
display block. The second display block is oriented above the first display block as shown in
Figure 2-6.
