[DutchRawr]

Hello all,

Eyefinity makes it so all three monitors act as if you're on one monitor, hence why the taskbar spans across them. So you're technically maximizing it like it should be. To make it only maximize on one screen you have to disable Eyefinity.

I just extend the desktop to other monitors rather than creating an Eyefinity display, make it far easier to use multiple windows.

That breaks three monitor gaming though I assume?

Its possible with Nvidia

Yea but it's quick to enable the Eyefinity display in CCC when you want to game across three monitors.

You can create separate cells within the displays of the spanned desktop using the Matrox PowerDesk program. It will allow you to maximize a window in a defined cell.

Haha it's only a few clicks though. I find it much more convenient having the monitors extended rather than in Eyefinity then enabling Eyefinity when needed. Personal preference though I suppose

Doesn't displayfusion do that?

You do not need multiple profiles nor third party utilities for the ability to maximize screens to one desktop AND play games full screen with Eyefinity enabled.

 

Rule 1: Do NOT use the Windows display properties.

 

Here is what I did to make it work.

 

Use CCC ONLY (I am using 14.4 but it worked with 13 as well).

In the CCC use advanced mode (Set in preferences) - turn off HydraGrid under Hydravision if you have it installed.

Go to Desktop Management-> and set your monitors to extended with the proper arrangement of monitors. Once you have a primary and extended monitor(s) go to Hydravision.

Select Desktop Manager and insure it is enabled and you should have the ability to uncheck Allow spanning across displays. (I went ahead and selected maximize to window corners first.)

 

Now go create your Eyefinity group and arrange it.

You should now be able to maximize windows to individual displays.

Do not double click the top of the app window to maximize the first time, use the button. If you do before you have maximized to one display, it will span the displays and you will have to window it down and then hit the maximize button anyway.

 

With this setup I can stretch windows across displays. Games play in FS (WOW, CRYSIS 3, BATTLEFIELD4, CoD)

The one caveat I have noticed is if you are watching video on the web and you want to maximize the video across all displays, you HAVE to hit full screen in the video player with the web browser or app windowed. If you maximize it on a monitor, the video will try to maximize to your full resolution but only on one monitor.

 

This works with Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1

 

Good Luck!
