I am having an issue with window positioning with nVidia surround. I even know what the problem is.

nVidia surround creates a single "monitor" out of all of the monitors you have. I have three 1920x1080's, thus, I end up with one 5760x1080 "monitor" as windows sees it.

I run two accounts at once, and on the standard dual monitor display, you can change the display adapter and select fixed window and it will go it it.

I am technically only running ONE monitor because of the way nVidia surround does it. Both (1920x1080) game windows appear on the very left monitor because EVE fixed window snaps it to the top left of the display adapter that is selected.

I instead would want the second window to be positioned 1920 pixels from the left of the screen, causing it to end up on my middle monitor.

How would I go about moving my fixed window to the middle monitor. It seems like there should be a "fixed window resolution offset" or something.

Any help is appreciated.
