Extended Monitors: An extended monitor configuration allows you to expand your desktop to use the full capability of your multiple monitors. Your monitors will be placed side by side virtually, allowing you to freely move windows between them.

How to set it up:

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window
Select the monitor(s) you would like to enable
Click the "Enable" button

Cloned Monitors: A cloned monitor configuration allows you to copy what is displayed on one monitor, to multiple other monitors connected to your computer. Being able to clone your monitors largely depends on your hardware configuration, and can be enabled through DisplayFusion.

How to set it up:

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window
Select the monitor you would like cloned
Set it to "Enabled and Cloned with Monitor #X"

Cloned Monitors

Rearranging Monitors: Many people use different physical setups for their multi-monitor configurations, so you may need to adjust the virtual layout of your monitors to match their physical orientation.

How to set it up:

Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window
Click the "Identify" button, this will show you which monitor ID's correspond to the monitors shown in the Monitor Configuration window
Click and drag each monitor to rearrange them to their respective positions

I have this setup and hotkey's set for my 2 monitor configurations:
- "Normal" (My laptop and 3 monitors) hotkey: shift+alt+6
- "Combine Prompter & Show Monitor" (Clones 3 to 4) hotkey: shift+alt+5

I use hotkey shift+alt+5 and it combines the monitors. However, when I'm done and I want to switch back to "Normal" profile, it does not. The monitors act like they are trying to do something but never uncombine 3/4. I have to right click the desktop and go to Display and still see them combined. So it's not working properly.

Any help would be great!

Here's my setup:
- XPS 15 7590
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz, 2592 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s)
- Name NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
