This is a feature that would be wonderful to have. Basically, whenever I want to sit back and watch a movie or play certain games, I have to manually turn off my secondary monitors to avoid them being a distraction. It seems like it should be possible for DisplayFusion to approximate the benefits of this automatically (I realize it's difficult to selectively cut off output through software). In order of complexity, the function could work something like:
Cinema Mode
Implementation #1:
Hide all windows/taskbars and display only a blank black screen on all monitors except the primary.
Implementation #2:
Hide all windows/taskbars and display only a blank black screen on all monitors except on the monitor that the given application window is running on.
Implementation #3:
Same as #2 except with the addition of only occurring when the application goes into full screen mode.
There is a way of manually doing this in the current version of DisplayFusion. I've setup separate hotkeys (Window Locations don't seem to work) for a solid black wallpaper profile, Minimize All Windows Except Current Window, and my current wallpaper profile. That's three steps every time, but it does work.
Anyway, that's my idea for the day. Thanks for reading and a big thanks to Binary Fortress for the great software, and even better quality support (you guys should get an award or something).
Interesting idea! I'll add this to our feature request list, and if we're able to implement something like this in the future, we'll be sure to let you know.
Thanks!

Wow, I had not expected to hear anything back after a couple years. The script worked perfectly, thank you!
Awesome, glad to hear it!
