    Hello all, strange issue appeared out of nowhere...
    On triples, all has been 'OK' until after the last update (Or two?~). I noticed when watching a replay that the grey navigation bar on the left screen only is off the top of the screen, including the steam FPS counter. So I can't get my mouse over the top camera controls.

    I then noticed that it's the same in any other menu in game, only the left screen. The navigation at the top is too high, the rest of the screen is fine. I tried a screenshot, but for some reason it shows up differently.

    Also, I have a weird resolution now. Instead of 5760x1080, it's become 5760x1094 :-/

    I've tried reverting to an old saved triplescreen .xml which shows the same issue.
    Code:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <Reflection>
        <class name="BRTTIRefCount" base="root class" />
        <class name="BPersistent" base="BRTTIRefCount">
            <prop name="Name" type="String" />
        </class>
        <class name="TripleScreenConfigData" base="BPersistent">
            <prop name="Build" type="U32" />
            <prop name="ForceTripleScreen" type="Bool" />
            <prop name="AllowTripleScreen" type="Bool" />
            <prop name="LeftScreen" type="Fct" />
            <prop name="RightScreen" type="Fct" />
            <prop name="CentreScreen" type="Fct" />
        </class>
        <data class="TripleScreenConfigData" id="0x42479440">

            <prop name="ForceTripleScreen" data="false" />

    Center/Right monitors, all good.

    Center/Left monitors, misaligned?

    Left monitor, top navigation, camera controls etc, and STEAM green FPS counter off the top.

    Does the issue persist after you delete the triplescreen.xml? If so try some negative verticalOffset on the left monitor.

    Yeah it was the same. Just fixed the issue though thankfully.

    It was either the STEAM in-game overlay, or the STEAM FPS counter from what I can tell.
    I turned them both off, rebooted the game, fixed!

    So thought I'd enable them one at a time to find the culprit, but strangely I can't reproduce the issue now. Both enabled again, and the screens are all still aligned.

    Oh well, one of those weird occurrences I suppose!
    Cheers mate.
