Download DisplayFusion 5.1.1

Binary Fortress Software has released version 5.1.1 of DisplayFusion. With this program it is possible to manage a multimonitor setup. For example, a separate background or screensaver can be set per screen and programs can be opened on a screen to be determined by the user.
