Oscar, have you tried to adjust the new SVGA submenu on the P3; SVGA bias > set waterfall color bias to about 1.2 or so and you will see the waterfall define to a blue, determined how much further you adjust.

Works fine in both full screen and picture in picture. Prior to this, I was having to use 1440 x 900. Good work! The only slight complaint I have is waterfall part of the display on the large monitor. The waterfall brightness/visibility is rather light and less distinct/bright than on the P3 screen. The top waveform part of the display is fine.
