I'm just going to post a new one on this, because I'm having trouble finding one in the last year or so talking about this on windows 10, but the issue I'm having is very similar to one of the issues discussed in https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-10-windows-snapping-a-few-pixels-off/?ID=8dae7bc8-1e10-44dc-9e39-fb3887f18aae

When using the Size and Move Window functions, there are gaps on the left and right of a lot of windows when multiple windows are being tiled together with those functions. It doesn't happen with all of my apps, but it has been happening with most apps I've been trying (including Chrome, Firefox, and all of the Windows system apps I've tried. (settings, explorer, etc.)

It doesn't happen with the Steam, Twitch, or Discord app. All of those seem to tile correctly, and will do so even if other windows have these gaps. (Or more accurately, it will leave a smaller gap if it is tiled with a window that is leaving gaps, correctly occupying half the monitor) There is also no gap between on the far right or far left edge of my monitor setup, but there is a gap between neighboring monitors.
The Windows snap shortcuts aren't leaving gaps with any of the windows.

I have a 3840x2160 monitor centered between two portrait 1920x1200 monitors on Windows 10.

This is because Windows puts invisible window borders (about 7px on each side) that function as the resize handles. Unfortunately it's not something we can fix from our end, windows just treats the edges of the windows as the edge of those invisible borders, instead of the edge of the actual visible client area :(

That's been my understanding, but how are you dealing with the edges of the draw space? The windows are still flush to the monitor and I can see that the coordinates for those windows extends beyond the screens, either starting at coordinates beyond the draw space or being slightly too big to actually fit.

And relatedly, has anyone found a way to turn those borders *off* yet? They sound like they'd be annoying for more than just this program.

We do compensate for the borders in some scenarios by adding to the width/height and adjusting the x,y, but not all, so I'm thinking maybe we need to extend that to more things, like the functions. Could you attach a copy of your troubleshooting info so that I can do some testing with your setup?

Thanks! We'll be sure to post an update if/when we are able to make some improvements to this so that you can test it out.

We've just released a new DisplayFusion beta version and this issue should be all fixed up. Please let us know if you run into any trouble after updating.

Thanks!
