For the TV screen size, were you able to find the scaling or overscan settings in your video card's control panel applet? If not, one other thing you can try is setting your TV's aspect ratio to "Just Scan" instead of "16:9." Not all TVs have that option though.

If Windows is moving your applications to the TV when switching profiles, the best thing to do is use the DisplayFusion Save and Restore Window Positions functions. On the Settings > Functions tab, assign key combos to those, then save the positions before switching, and restore them after the profile has been loaded. If this works for you, it can be scripted into a single DisplayFusion function as well. Just let me know :)


Thank you, that kinda worked, but it's already a 3rd wheelchair I use to fix this problem, so yesterday, I just said to myself "f*ck it" and unplugged the TV from videocard, now DF works flawlessly! No moving icons, resolution bugs, etc!

Decided to just hang the HDMI wire nearby in case I need to connect in to my notebook and for PC, I can always cast a screen using Chromecast.

Thanks for trying to help me, but stupid Windows is just stupid, this monitors issue exists since 20..whatever, but MS seems not to care. ]]> RE: 3 monitors issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#7 Wed, 18 Feb 2015 15:11:59 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#7 DisplayFusion For the TV screen size, were you able to find the scaling or overscan settings in your video card's control panel applet?

Ok this solution party solves the issue, new windows get opened on my primary monitor, but all windows that are ALREADY opened still go to the TV when I change profile to primary+TV.

Also the TV screen size problem persists, still have no idea what to do with it. ]]> RE: 3 monitors issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#5 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 18:02:00 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#5 DisplayFusion Not sure why apps would be going to monitor 1 by default, as they should also go to the primary monitor (unless they were last closed on monitor 1). However, you can create a DisplayFusion Window Location rule to have all windows open on the monitor you're currently working on. See the attached screenshot for reference :) ]]> RE: 3 monitors issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#4 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 12:30:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#4 DisplayFusion Anybody?
Any idea?
Internet's mute to my problem =( ]]> RE: 3 monitors issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#3 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 00:10:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#3 DisplayFusion Of course I have it set as main monitor, that's like the basics.
But still, everything goes to my TV, as it is number 1.

Doesn't solve the issue! ]]> RE: 3 monitors issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#2 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 20:24:57 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902#2 DisplayFusion The first issue can easily be solved by opening Screen Resolution (by right clicking on desktop) then selecting the screen and Make this my main display
http://puu.sh/fHmIX.png

Everything should now open on that display.
the second depends on either your videocard or TV. if AMD videocard you can solve this by opening AMD catalyst and changing the scaling options in My Digital Flat-Panels for your TV. The same goes for Intel open up the scaling options.
Nvidia I am not sure about as I haven't dealt with this problem on nvidia yet. ]]> 3 monitors issue https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 18:16:40 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/3-monitors-issue/?ID=468c1652-d77a-4dc6-b7e0-315c09349902 DisplayFusion I've been using DF for quite a while now and had no problems so far, but now that I've connected my new TV via to HDMI port of PC, I've faced troubles I don't really know how to solve:

1) TV took over number 1 in monitors identity which after numerous hours of search in the internet seems to be a Windows issue and the only solution here is to swap cables, but I can't do that, cause my monitors are DVI, they don't have HDMI slots, so can swap them only using 2 HDMI-DVI adapters.
So I thoughts whatever, I don't really care about the number it has, I need to make it work right.
When I turn on TV as 3rd monitor, all windows immediately go there.
When I open apps from the tray, they open on the TV!
What can I do about it?
Is there a way to change monitors number that I still don't know of or is there a way to set my main monitor (which gets number 2 when 3 monitors are on) as the one and only and prevent windows from moving to the TV?

2) TV freq is 1920x1080 which I've set, but all 4 boarders go beyond the TV frames, how do I make the picture fit the screen? ]]>
