I would like to redefine the screen space my monitors provide. Currently, I have two monitors on my computer with a screen size of 1680x1080 each. I would like to re-define this space to be 3 monitors with the same total size, e.g. one with 1680x1080 and two with 840x1080.
Important for me: For Windows 7, these should be "real" monitors, so I get native handling.
Is something like this possible?
8 years later with 5120x1440 monitors this makes even more sense... Sadly there seem to be no such utility. – Jaroslav Záruba – 2020-01-02T08:27:51.320
To get "native handling", you'll need OS and Graphics driver support. AFAIK, this will be impossible, if not, very difficult to pull off. This is an odd request. What is your end result? Do you need programs to run in each screen? Do you need to test screen coordinates? – surfasb – 2011-12-02T05:38:40.350
I just want to use my screen space more efficient. On the other hand, I always maximize my windows out of habit... So, defining virtual screens would solve both problems. Basically, what I want is what all those programs achieve that lets you define a grid for your desktop the windows maximize in. However, I have found no program so far that feels natural. – Daniel Hilgarth – 2011-12-02T09:56:51.420
