I was just wondering if Nvidia ever responded to Binary Fortress inquiries about Surround and/or if Binary Fortress is working on a way to fully toggle Nvidia Surround. There was a time when Monitor Profile switching worked as a Surround toggle by coincidence, but sadly Nvidia changed their drivers and messed it all up :x
Now it is possible to toggle surround using Nvidias shortcut keys (and for DisplayFusion to set my wallpaper and icons by detecting a surround profile). However Nvidias Shortcut keys do not work with bezel corrected resolutions. Also, to disable Surround I have to use the Nvidia shortcut and then a monitor profile shortcut because turning off surround turns off two of my monitors for some reason.
Ideally I would be able to use a key shortcut to enable surround with bezel corrected resolution and at the same time DisplayFusion would change to an appropriate wallpaper and icon profile.
Is any of this possible without communication with Nvidia? They seem to have little to no care for Surround users and it's bloody annoying.
I really appreciate the work you guys do on DisplayFusion and understand if this isn't possible, but having some up to date information would be nice :)

Posted this in the other topic as well, but posting here to be thorough:

Unfortunately not at the moment, but we're investigating whether it's possible to use the Nvidia Control Panel API for toggling Surround and whatnot. We'll definitely post an update if we're able to get that working :)

I Bought DF specifically because its cumbersome to do surround with triple monitors using nvidia.

So definitely looking for display fusion to handle this as well .. along with all the great features.

i am LOVING the background switch on a timer for each monitor seperately, it just works great.

Thank you guys.

Best regards
Peter
