Update no 3: it looks like some trigger in display fusion made a mess, and was squishing my dcs world main monitor...Will keep testing and report

Lates update no 2: i enabled fullscreen for testing - this what i got now: --watch video: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BpLo_SOFCU3HTMrHsAs89r7CFpfZyCi4?usp=sharing

Latest update....i removed everything from dcs Saved games, removed spacedesk (which was used to export mfd to tablet as additional screen), disabled helios...and setup monitor inside windows to be DCS on the left side, extended on the right side..:Fixed monitor.lua, started dcs - dcs main screen squished again...Cant figure what is wrong

Ok will try later today...They dont need to be on top of each other...My setup has only two requirements...Physically - main monitor in front of me. and second monitor for reading pdf is on the left side from main (i can't put it anywhere else on my table)...But for DCS as i understand main monitor needs to be first (top left most one), which is opposite of my configuration on the table, For exporting mfd i use tablet, and it can be positioned anywhere.. Yesterday i tried - removing my tablet from windows setup, uninstalled space desk application, disabled use of helios, and only used two monitors - one for dcs and other for exported mfds and modified monitor.lua file. ...The result was the same - squished monitor picture?! Now i am thinking maybe i need to reinstall DCS and clean savedgames DCS folder completely

Ok, main problem i was having - is that i need to physically have main monitor in front of me, and extended monitor for reading PDF needed to be on the left side (because my table limitations).. So maybe problem is that DCS starts counting export screens from x 0 and y 0 - which is top leftmost monitor, and in my case there was second monitor for reading pdfs..Now i found a mouse wrap function in display fusion which i use for monitor configurations - so i can position my PDF monitor on the right side in my windows setup, but leave it physically to the left of the main monitor, and with mouse wrap if i move my mouse naturally to the left of main screen (although physically monitor is to the right) mouse will wrap to the left monitor...maybe in this setup, dcs export will work as intended.. null

Sorry, that's because i tried different setups...But main thing, out of 3 setups that i tried, i get everyone of them working once - but only after i completely change monitor setup, and start of DCS first time only. Affter reseting my pc i get squished monitor again..Then i re--order monitor setup again, fix my lua.monitor file through helios, then it works first time, after reset of PC again squished DCS window again..I even tried the version where i have lefmost monitor empty but included in helios export Can you please help me with creating 2 lua files with config like in pic below...so i would like to test it...also please write mi what config to setup in dcs for each (what resolution to use for both configs)..All three monitors are 1920*1080 each Empty monitor is only for reading pdf files..

Thanks Leg2ion - Look at the first post - all 3 monitors are 1920*1080 - number 1 is main dcs screen , 2 is only for reading pdf files and should not be included in enythig related to helios or dcs export), and 3 is for exporting Land R mfd...Lua file is: H_0-HR_F18v2.lua Problem is it doesn't work 5 out of 6 times---and when it works, i cant replicate the steps (ie. which programs i launch in which order so i get it to work)..I am using helios, and space desk to simulate tablet as my third screen...

Still need help....i changed setup so my windows setting is Helios is setup like in pic 2 End resullt look like this:

Please check this and help me before i get divorced!!

C'mon people....this is a second week that i can't fix this problem, it drives me crazy....and my wife also...

I have this in appsettings.lua...Still don't know why my main screen is squished null

Thanks, you fixed it for me....i will bookmark this first page, and try Advanced editing by aircraft type at a later date... For now i am trying to export just 2 mfd screens, and for f-18 only..Also would like to stop using helios for mfd export for now..and fix my problem described here:

Hi all - i need help I have 3 screen setup - 2 monitors and 1 tablet - all are 1920*1080 Monitor 2 is only used for reading pdf files, monitor 1 is main DCS, monitor 3 is tablet (added as 3rd screen via SpaceDesk application) I also use Helios and In helios my setup is below - via helios i marked that my main and export mfd scrfeens are vertically setup Now after each restart of my pc,and after starting DCS i have main dcs screen squashed and/or moved to my tablet like in pic 3. Only thing that works as of now is to once disable SpaceDesk external monitor (which is tablet) and enable it once again..After that everything works Attached is my new monitor lua test file My testing config.lua

Why can't i see this monitor lua in my DCS selection list of monitor files? My testing config.lua

Hi all -- i would like to print this one designb as well....I am trying this online site https://jlcpcb.com/ Will it be tough enough if i use SLA resin 3D file MFD plate v1.step Dimensions 28.8×18.45×2 cm Volume 91.92 cm³ Surface Area 828.37 cm² 3D Technology SLA(Resin) Material X Resin Colors Random Surface Finish No Build Time 96 hours Qty 1 Product Decs Tablet Enclosure Hi all -- i would like to print this one design ....I am trying this online site https://jlcpcb.com/ Will it be tough enough if i use SLA resin 3D file MFD plate v1.step Dimensions 28.8×18.45×2 cm Volume 91.92 cm³ Surface Area 828.37 cm² 3D Technology SLA(Resin) Material X Resin Colors Random Surface Finish No Build Time 96 hours Qty 1 Product Decs Tablet Enclosure

No i checked all the files and everything looks good (monitor.lua, screen res. in game, helios monitor setup)...

sometimes after everything works for a couple of days, i get my main game screen move to wrong screen, ie it ends on my tablet which is my second screen...How to fix this?

Thanks now everythging is clearer!! I'll see which approach i will use...If i program keys on MFD OSB buttons in TARGET Script, I know i need to add them inside DCS (also program each MFD button)--that is almost double the work i have to do!! Maybe ill use RS mapper to program secondary functions on MFD Buttons

Kneeboard, control postition indicator, radio dialog, Jester AI - allow custom permanent position for multimonitor setup If i edit manualy postion for kneeboard, i get MP client tainted ban from servers

What are best monitor.lua resolution coordinates to use with each MFD? I have tablet of 1920*1080 res, so then when i place two MFD cougars on top my tablet, which resolution is best for MFD screens? 800*800 pr some other, so it's best fit for MFD Cougars?

Ok i tried using T.A.R.G.E.T. but what i got is that - DX1 button for example is used as warthog Trigger button, and that same DX1 is assigned as my LEFT and RIGHT MFD Cougar button OSB1...I thought that every device has each own dx1 button, but when using combined profile DX1 is shared across all devices...or am not having good profile setup...

I have 3 screens setup like this in windows, and in helios nullBut upon launching DCS my main game window gets moved to export screen i cant change position of DCS between monitor 1 and 3.....On monitor 1 should be main dcs game, on monitor 3 should be exported mfd screens...How to fix this?null

Yep just found out in game, when i use rudder it shows complete beacuse it is displayed on the side away from center of hud , but on this picture it looks like it's behind other hud symbology --- is this normal behaviour ?

I was wondering what is this line on hud when i use AA radar mode? In the picture i dont have anything locked on hud..

In this DCS_4MFD provile, i was wondering how is this setup MapKey(&LMFD, OSB01, TEMPO(DX1, CHAIN(DX120, D(ModDelay), DX1), ModTempo)); where is ModTempo and ModDelay - where are they setup?
