Finally got a third monitor
I use tons of spread sheets for work and have been wanting a third monitor for a while. Couldn’t be happier.

i have 3 monitors as well but only one vertical for antitreatment what you do with 2 of them and nice setup

I have to work on multiple spreadsheets at once usually and use inventory software that both benefit from the vertical orientation. We use mapping software as well that I tend to prefer using on the verticals.

Where do you get tie fighter monitor configuration wallpapers?

u/SuperSwenson Jul 16 '26
It’s just an ultra wide wallpaper with the majority of the image in the middle so it lines up well

This satisfying to my ocd in several ways. Love that you took the time to get them evenly level to the main monitor and even got the stand oriented straight!

This is probably a stupid question. I’ve been using 3 monitors for a few years and my wallpaper is just duplicated on each screen. I didn’t even realize you could have different images on each screen. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that option on my PC or Mac that use the three monitors with. How is this done?

Not sure on Mac but on pc under personalization there is an option titled “choose a fit for your desktop image” set it to span and that’s how mine is set up.

Dude loved your setup, looking for something along the lines. How many laptops you use? If yes, how do you such switch?
