Like the title says, its not properly spanning across my two monitors.I'm using the basic Display Fusion and I have two monitors set at 1280x1024 and am using a wallpaper that is 2560x1024 but it seems to only take the left side of the wallpaper and clone it to the second screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you please post a screen shot of your desktop wallpaper window for DF?
Also try changing the settings to use two different images tehn which back to span across all and change the image back, and let me know how that goes.

Blah i really wish I could figure this issue out, another person has a very similar issue. Maybe if you are more active than him I can.

I'm having the same issues.

I use 2 identical monitors to connect to a xps laptop- 1 monitor through the vga, the other through dvi.

When I click I want the background to span the entire desktop, it doesn't- the background is just copies of each other on both monitors.

Basically it shows that, but on both screens it has the left half of the wallpaper. And I tried going swapping from different desktop for each monitor to spanning again and that didnt work.

These are my settings. The entire picture goes on each screen instead of being stretched over two.

I tried changing the settings to use two different images, and only the picture loaded on the primary monitor shows. Even if I chose a different picture for the secondary monitor, this different picture does not show- the picture on the primary is copied to the 2nd.

What make of video card do you have, and do you know what driver version you are using? It's very, very strange that all of a sudden DisplayFusion has stopped working for 3 different people in 1 week. DisplayFusion v2.2.1 was released almost 6 months ago and hasn't been changed at all in those 6 months, so I would be hesitant to say that it is DisplayFusion causing these problems. I'm hoping we can find some common ground here (video drivers, background software... etc) and troubleshoot from there.

Thanks!

So far 4 people have reported this issue, 2 of them are using the new ATI drivers, 2 of them I'm not sure. A trend perhaps? I'll install the new ATI drivers on my ATI testing machine tonight and see what happens. Do you have the specific driver version? I'm assuming it's 9.1. Also, what operating system are you using? I'm guessing Windows XP SP3 from the screen shots.

Ive narrowed down my problem to an app called Fences by Stardock... seems when thats installed it conflicts with display fusion in some way.

Fences will be a great application, if it doesn't muck with everything else like it apparently is. I am also having the image span issue that others have mentioned. Using an nvidia card.

I'm glad to hear that you've all pin-pointed the conflicting application, I never would have guessed that. :) I'll start testing with Fences and see what I can find out, but there may not be anything I can do if it messes around with the desktop background.
