    My left monitor config won't keep the pixel width I enter. Whenever I input a value for the physical width, the pixel width changes to that value. The interesting thing is: when I move the cursor over the pixel width, it shows the value I entered...

    So to be clear: I entered the value of 2580 for the pixel width, and 61 for the physical width, as soon as I entered 61 for the physical width, the pixel width changed to 61, but when I hover the cursor over it, it shows 2580, move the cursor away, it goes back to 61.

    I'm sure it's using the 61, because the left monitor isn't filled like the right monitor.

    The left monitor in the software is the only one with this issue.

    What I've done:
    I removed the AMS2 folder from the Documents folder & relaunched the game. Even though Triple Screen Spanning was checked, only the center screen was available. I unchecking & re-checked TSS, and the other two screens appeared.

    All three screens had the following values prefilled, (Pixel Width & Pixel Height were greyed out & not changeable):
    Pixel Width: 2560
    Pixel Height: 1440
    Physical Width: 47
    Physical Height: 26

    I then l re-launched the game & started a test day. Closed out of the test day and went back to the triple screen configurator. The center & right screens kept the above values, but the left screen changed the Pixel Width to 47.00 (shows 2560 when hovered over), same as the above physical width.

    Attached are how my left & right screens look. The left screen isn't filled like the right screen.

    I can also upload a video of how the numbers change if needed.

    Use „.“ to seperate instead of „,“ wherever it‘s needed. This fixed a lot of trouble with my Trible Screen config (using german UI). Maybe this helps, otherwise try to set your values direct in the config file.

    Thanks guys.

    I actually posted this in the support thread, and someone recommended I try editing the triplescreensettings.xml file.

    Turns out the pixel resolutions appear to default to 1920x1080 despite what is entered or displayed in the configurator. I manually entered my actual values in the file, and now things are looking good.

    Thanks!
