So I recently decided it would be cool to have 2 'wing' monitors next to my primary display
It consists of 2 1920x1080 monitors in portrait mode, and a single 4k TV in the center. (with the chosen monitors matching the pixel density of the primary display)

I was intending to game on this.. ofcourse, but Imagine my shock when Nvidias surround driver doesnt support portrait mode...

So on to display fusion

After several hours of problems (apparently trying to set the vertical position ABOVE the desktop work area is a big no-no, so I had to set the horizontal position to the left of the desktop work area instead)

I have this (attached below) which takes a Window, removes its boarder, and spans it across all my displays in a way that covers them Fully.

Please note that there is 240x1080 pixels missing from both the top left, and top right of your screen (which may be a big deal if your game has UI elements like health-bars at the top of the screen. so your results may vary

This is also hard-coded for my specific dimensions; if yours differ, this is the line that needs changed: (just ctrl+f to find it in the code)

BFS.Window.SetSizeAndLocation(windowHandle, -1080, 0, 6000, 2160);
