September 15, 20205 yr Hi-still tooling around in P3Dv4.5 (latest hotfix) and plan to stay there for now. I use three 4k monitors in surround as a single display, and a fourth monitor as a second screen. I do not use TrackIR or any software for custom views. The surround setup is 90% for the virtual cockpit and the fourth monitor is for instruments that are undocked. My video card, an old NVIDIA Pascal Titan, has room for 4 outputs, which I'm using. The surround display in P3d is created by stretching the view over three monitors, and running in full screen mode. For the life of me, I can't figure out how the eliminate or minimize the surround stretching after searching the forums, so I've lived with it. Is there a way to use the surround display without the stretching? Any solution would have to leave the two displays in the same format as now, as that's the way I've flown since day one. I know there are view groups which (I've never used), and have seen expensive software that is supposed to eliminate the stretching, but don't know if it will work in my setup, and if it does, how to use it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jay Forever indebted to the late Michael Greenblatt of FSGS.
September 19, 20205 yr Hi Jay, There is a post that creates a wideview distortion fix. It is not 100% perfect, but its a good improvement. Here it is Regards form Southern Sunny Florida Juan

I indeed you can run three 4K displays with acceptable performance, stepping down to 1080p ought to work well with a view group.
