Hi, I have been using a triple monitor setup for a few years now, but have recently changed to using nVidia Surround so I can span my games over all 3 monitors. My biggest bug bear was the taskbar, and DF only goes half way to resolving it.
What I really want is the main taskbar to be on the left hand side of my right hand monitor, and a secondary taskbar on the bottom of the left hand monitor, with no taskbar on the center screen. Because of the way Surround works, windows will no longer allow me to have the taskbar in what it deems as slightly to the right of center. I also like all my shortcuts on the right hand taskbar.
Is this something DF can handle?
You won't be able to have the native Windows taskbar on the left side of the right monitor, because Windows will only reserve space on the far edges of what it knows to be the only monitor (the 3 combined). However, with DisplayFusion Monitor Splitting, you can have 3 separate taskbars. It would be a DisplayFusion taskbar on the right monitor, which you can position on the left side. You can also add shortcuts to it just by right-clicking a taskbar button on that taskbar and choosing "Pin this program to taskbar."
Hope that helps!

Thanks for the reply Keith, thats what I have done, and I have the windows Taskbar on auto hide so its not there most of the time.
One other thing, if I watch something streaming on-line, and I fullscreen it, it will cover all 3 monitors, ie YouTube, is there any way to fix this to just the centre monitor?
