Hi there,
Just done some testing as I was having trouble getting certain games to work in full-screen mode.
When DisplayFusion 8.0b5 was open, if I tried to get the game to go to full-screen (using Alt-Enter) on the Nvidia Surround setup I have, the games would snap to one monitor of the three in a windowed mode.
I've done some testing, and the trick to get these games to work across all three monitors is to add them in the Compatibility Settings, picking "Force DisplayFusion to treat this as a full screen application".

The games in question are those running on the EGO Engine, used by Codemasters. These include:

Other titles in these series may be affected as well. A full list is available here.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll test this out here. Which version of Windows are you running?

Ok, the only game I have here from your list is GRID Autosport and I had a slightly different experience. GRID would crash if the DisplayFusion taskbar was enabled, even if I created a compatibility rule for it. If you delete your compatibility rule and disable the taskbars manually, then launch GRID, does the full screen mode work correctly?
