Hello.

First, I would like to state that I just love this software. Recently, I bought a third monitor, and now, winstep doesn't seem to recognize it. Is there a way to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

What Windows version? Do all the monitors share the same screen DPI? Did you restart the software already? Are they configured as independent monitors in Windows or are you using something like nVidia's Surround?

The version in windows 10. I already restarted the software a few times and I'm not using nvidia surround. The threee of them use 1920 x 1080.

Which of the 3 monitors is not showing up?

The screenshot you provided does not show me their relative position either.

I will have to compile a small applet to try and figure out what is going on in there. I'll let you know here once you can download it to give it a try.

Ok, apologies for the long delay.

Download TestMonitors.zip from HERE, unzip, then run TestMonitors.exe and post a screenshot of the results.

Actually you don't even need to post a screenshot, you can simple copy & paste the information here. :)

Change the DPI of your primary monitor to 100%.
