You can use a custom function to do that, you can find our guide on custom functions here: https://www.displayfusion.com/HelpGuide/CustomFunctions/

Thanks, I have a running finction that place windows in center of screen, but I want it to have heigth = 1400, and width = 2000, when I try this DP crashes:

//SetSizeAndLocation(IntPtr windowHandle, int x, int y, int width, int height);

Code
Copy
Select All

SetSizeAndLocation(IntPtr windowHandle, int 1000, int 0, int 2000, int 1400);

You can set the specified width/height in a custom function as well, but if you need it done via a scripted function, you can cut out the variables you're declaring inside the brackets. It should look like this:

Code
Copy
Select All

BFS.Window.SetSizeAndLocation(windowHandle, 1000, 0, 2000, 1400);

Hope that helps!

Hi. This worked, center window, se picture

Now I want to use the function :Center Window Ignoring Splits (run again to restore position)
using System;
using System.Drawing;

// Moves active window to center of monitor, ignoring splits
// when run again (for same window) restores original position
// position is stored per window, so any number of windows may be centered and then moved back to original position
// set targetWidth to change window's width when centered (width is also restored when restoring position)
// ***
// TIP - set targetWidth to 1920 to emulate the width of a borderless FULL-HD window (very useful for ultra wides)
// ***
public static class DisplayFusionFunction
{

In this function i wold like to take active window, center and fit 1560, 0,2000,1392

WHen runn Center Window Ignoring Splits (run again to restore position) again then it goes back to previous size:

Is that an option?

I've attached a script below that should do this. You can import it via the DisplayFusion Settings > Functions > Scripted Function > Import Scripted Function.
