Yep that's correct, the 0,0 location will be the top left of your primary monitor as well. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#9 Thu, 09 Mar 2023 18:54:18 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#9 DisplayFusion hi Owen,
this script works just fine! thx a lot!
to use it also on my other pc with two screens, I just need to copy your script and to alter the windows-position-assignments accordingly, the combined surface of the 2 monitors beeing considered by win as 1 space, right?

You can import it via the DisplayFusion Settings > Functions > Scripted Function > Import Scripted Function.

Let me know if you run into any troubles.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#7 Tue, 07 Mar 2023 16:28:22 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#7 DisplayFusion maybe this helps. that's how I load my apps with a batch-file:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE" /select outlook:Contacts
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE" /select outlook:Calendar
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE"

as to the windows positioning, it would be:
X=0, X=0, W= 1280, H=1390
x=1280, Y=0, W=1280, H=695
X=1278, Y=697, W= 1280, H= 1416 ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#6 Mon, 06 Mar 2023 15:41:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#6 DisplayFusion I can't quite read the function names, are they "Outlook Agenda", "Outlook Contacts", and "Outlook Mail"? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#5 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 17:03:57 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#5 DisplayFusion Here you are. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#4 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 15:10:05 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#4 DisplayFusion Hi Peter,

Could you send me over a screenshot of the functions you have setup? A screenshot of the DisplayFusion Settings > Functions tab, showing those functions should be fine

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#3 Thu, 02 Mar 2023 22:33:32 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#3 DisplayFusion I launch the 3 outlook-apps through "functions, custom functions, launch application". these are 3 functions to which I assign a key combination. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#2 Wed, 01 Mar 2023 16:24:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e#2 DisplayFusion Hi Peter,

Are you currently launching these through custom functions? If so, could you send me over a screenshot of the functions you have setup?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e Sun, 26 Feb 2023 13:46:02 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/how-to-launch-several-apps-position-them-with-1-keyboard-shortcut/?ID=357ecf41-6b99-446c-bd23-78d03f008b0e DisplayFusion Hi
I'd like to press only 1 kb-shortcut to launch 3 instances of outlook (mail, agenda, contacts) and to position specifically these 3 windows. Until now, I need 4 kb-shortcuts to do this. Do you know how to do this?
Regards, Peter ]]>
