Save Window Positions, Load Monitor Profile, Restore Window Positions
Return to DisplayFusion Scripted Functions (Macros)

Description
This script will save your window positions, then load a Monitor Profile, and then restore the window positions. It's useful on systems where Windows decides to shuffle around your open applications when the monitor configuration changes. Note that this script is only useful if you're switching between monitor profiles where the primary monitor is the same monitor, since the window positions are saved based on their X,Y location, which is calculated starting at the top-left corner of the primary monitor.
