you missed a step, i have it downloaded and i set up the layers but i cant figure out how to actually use it, you start off with it preconfigured so it doesnt really tell us how to actually use it.
Today, there are lots of similar applications. The main issue with all(?) of them, is they cannot control use of full screen. The moment you select full screen, Windows overrides all splits.
@SoMan-d2c I found something called Virtual Display Manager from a company named iShadow. It does work, kind of, but it is a bit buggy - it sometimes freezes my screens. It is not free, but they have a trial version. I bought a license , but I’m on the fence when it comes to permanent use. If you end up using it, I’d appreciate if you could let me know about your experience.
The last thing you did with the stock charts is EXACTLY why I'm hoping Fancy Zones helps. In the past 15 years, I never needed it, but Win11 now shuffles most of those open charts all over 3 monitors every time the machine sleeps the monitors. I'm at my wits end with this thing. If this doesn't work, I'm going back to Win 7 on my brand new machine.
Great demo, thanks Chris. What seems to be missing (having tried it yet) is something akin to i3 twm where certain apps can be pinned to a designated workspace (sort of like virtual desktops in Windows) and you can fire up a collection of workspaces at will so one collection for all your video editing tools f.ex., running it will open all the apps and cascade them nicely in place exactly where you left them obvious first world problem but yeah...still nice to have
been using a 4k 43" tv for years, and never really needed to use this, my apps all remember their layouts, but it is a pretty cool tool, and I'll be using it going forward.
Thanks for the tutorial! However, I have a small issue: when I want to put a UA-cam video in full screen while I have defined a specific zone, the video goes full screen on the entire screen instead of just the defined zone. How can I fix this?
Chris can you keep the layout and the information in each box after the computer has been switched off or do you have to reconstruct it and put the information every time you restart the computer?
I wish this didnt say monitor"S"... I'm trying to figure out if fancy zones can do multi-monitor! ***Edit*** Ahhh ok. You answered toward the end. Thank you. HEY EVERYONE the Multiple Monitor part starts at @7:06 !!!!
I need to restart my pc several times a day, and I obviously need windows to remember the size of my explorer and programs windows at restart. I threw in the toilet lot of precious time every time for decades due to this problem. Why when i close windows holding down shift makes the system remember the size of windows but on restart these sizes are not remembered anymore? What can I do to get out of this Windows nightmare?
The thing is that you can't open GoogleChrome with online site and make it fullscreen inside of zone. It make a fullscreen of whole monitor BUT really thank you! I have been looking for oportunity to divide my laptop for zones and look atleast video player (it wirking fullscreen inside zone great) :)
Chris, I'm trying to detect what I'm doing wrong with FZones. I'm running 5.1 but cannot get beyond booting the Editor and it's driving me mad. I run Chrome and underneath PowerToys have one of several Tabs open. After opening PT I select FZones and boot the Editor. I select (say) three columns. MS's instruction is to 'Click on your selection', the ghost of which I can see behind the selections, but on doing so the Editor closes and the three columns vanish and I'm back at PToys main screen. There is something very simple I'm not doing right. What is it? I need some baby steps, please.
do you notice that fancy zone have one limitation , we can not set the resolution. I mean i have split the 4x4 then font are big like 720 on each area. every time i need to zoom out documents. its not easy
Nice to see a video about Fancyzone i'm a big fan and use it @work to handel my widescreen conected to my laptop. The reason i found this video was becausse i trying to find the info wheter you can play a game in zone whitout losing the mouse (i'm soon stepping over from 3 monitor setup to 1 58 inch) I liked the video but i didn't get the answer.
Great video! I work in sales and often work between 4-8 different windows at one time. I am curious how many windows can comfortably be open at one time on a 43" and 49" monitor like Dell/Samsung...any estimations or have you done a video like this?
Thanks for sharing. I was wondering what would you recommended TV as a monitoring since I don't have much interested in TV basically something to have better vision 🤔/please
That looks very cool, but I wonder about one thing. Does it integrate with application which can share your screen? I do a lot of online presentations and I would like e.g. Zoom or MS Teams to share a specific zone, which I created in Fancy Zones. Is that possible?
Keep a calculator app or EXCEL worksheet open in a small window. In EXCEL you could have the formulas present for proportioning the zone as 16:9, 16:10, 8.5:11, etc.
The one thing I want to know that is not covered in this or the previous video is: Can you resize the spaces AFTER you build your setup? Example: I set two even spaces 50/50. Can I make the left one 40 and the right one 60 after the fact?
The quesetion is not 'how to make it work with another monitor' but how can fancy zones 'remember' it's settings for said monitors especially when they are removed or realigned often (a moving computer with a separate screen that is unplugged and replugged often It seems (for now) that fancy zones still needs some work on that, as it keeps forgetting it's layout or settings and has to be specified again and again. then again for an even broader application i'd love powershell support, allowing me to open an app automatically in a specific zone from the getgo would help in our specific marketing setups.
I dont need window management i need this exact same concept except its virtual monitors not windows. Do you or anyone know any free software that can do that? I would use fancyzone but it doesn't allow to fullscreen within the zone. Im thinking with virtual monitors ill be able to fullscreen within the "zone"
I'm using 6 zones like you, except the horizontal split is 50-50 for me. Combined with virtual desktops (one for private stuff, one for coding, one for communication) and a second small monitor (to always have chat in view).
I learned about virtual desktops last year (2023) and was so mad. It's only been out since, what, 2016. You know with VDs you can have windows show on all the desktops, right? I have a legend for what is on each desktop and have it show on all desktops. That way I dont have to think "now which desktop is email, etc." I am struggling with wanting my tasks to always be visible which with VDs, fancy zones and a 34 in monitor works, but when I am on the road, the laptop alone sucks. I have 2-old 17 in laptops. I am going to make 2 portable USB monitors so I can pop them up and put tasks on one.

The Stock Market or website pages didn't fit in the boxes. It would try to fit it in but would overhang outside the box so I don't see how this will work unless you know a way to get them to fit
Thanks for the video. Very helpful. Is there any way to remove the title bars in these windows? Or at least hide them? Similarly is there a way to have the app recognize the tile as the "Full Screen" of the display so that maximizing the app window or using a Full Screen setting in a game would only fill the tile not the entire monitor?
Hi, great video. I have a question: is it possible to place, for example, Google Chrome with Netflix running in one area and launch (Google Chrome) it in full-screen mode but only in that specific area? I would like to have the movie playing on a portion of the screen without unnecessary bars. Thank you
Very interesting! Thank you! - I know how to do 3 fancy zones and have a browser in each zone window. Now I would like to have each browser in each zone in fullscreen (F11). Is that possible and how? Thanks!!!
Great information Chris!, is it possible to have two smaller TV sets, and divide each one in 4 zones, would it work just as nice as you show in this video?, thanks a lot, Luis
I tried this with a 65" and when I made 4 zones and put a chrome tab in there, going fullscreen mode in the tab sized it back to the fullscreen... I want to watch 4 streams at the same time, what did I do wrong -.-
Are you doing this on a pc or a laptop? If so can you please share the model because I tried it on a laptop with a 55 inch tv monitor and it is not snapping to fit correctly. The sizing is off and it is overlapping and it doesn't show near as much in each of the screens on the ones that do show.
but how do you full screen !!!! lol if i have a dual 4k monitor ( g9 57 ) i have 2 4k screens side by side. i want to be able to full screen half the monitor which would be 1 32 inch 4k screen
Are applications sticky, with respect to a section? By way of example, if I open an Excel file in a section, will the next Excel file open in the same section, or each time I open any file I have to drag it to a section manually?
Thanks for a great presentation, just one question. Different people using the same pc might want different arrangements. Can a fancyzone layout be saved as a file and loaded, some Autodesk softwares have a similar solution?

Is it possible to use a 60" UHD 4K TV and can you place different sections of Davinci Resolve Pages on the TV and the computer screen and have the active on the biggest in the middle. of the set up you are explaining there. You're a Premiere guy right?
Sorry I missed this comment. I’m using premiere at the moment but I’ve dabbled with da Vinci resolve too. I find resolve much more limiting when it comes to customisation. Last time I used it you could only use it in full screen… is this still the case? I’m happy to install and have a look for you.
And all the work I went to to get my 3 portrait monitors all nicely aligned, but nowhere near as aligned as 60 or 70 inch 4K would be. Given the super low price for 4K OLED and QLED screens these days, It's hard to imagine anyone using "multiple monitors" every again.

doesnt work. every screen other then a browser doesnt size to what i specified. steam for example will take up more room then it should and the contents wont resize to fit the window so everything is wayyy too zoomed in. if that the only way this works then i dont see the point because multi tasking is impossible
ok so there's a ton of stuff that isn't explained in this video. For example, you have to click "shift" when dragging inorder to activate the fancyzones..

Great video! Im sold on it and I downloaded it. However, I can not get the zones to appear when I am using my stock trading application. Etrade, TDAmeritrade, nor DAS trading platforms are able to move to a zone. In fact the zones do not even show up. It works fine with web pages though. I am holding down shift as I move the web page and letting go which makes it snap into the desired zone. Is it not possible or am I doing something wrong? Also, since I have a 49" screen ultimately I would like to maximize a small window chart window I have open in a larger zone (three charts to a zone is what I plan to have) but at this time, when I maximize a window that I can mange to get into a zone, it does not expand to the zone size. It expands to the screen monitor size. Is there a way around this? Thank you.
Update: It snapped to attention and it is now working fine. Not sure what happened or what i did, but all is well now. However the issue of getting a smaller window withing a zone to go full screen w/i the zone still exists and from a quick search online this seems to be a common issue w/o any resolution. Some say you must make a virtual monitor, others say its a windows issue. No matter. If/when a solution comes about I'll make the adjustment. Love you other videos also. You have a great presentation style and its all so informative.
you missed a step, i have it downloaded and i set up the layers but i cant figure out how to actually use it, you start off with it preconfigured so it doesnt really tell us how to actually use it.

Etrade, TDAmeritrade, nor DAS trading platforms are able to move to a zone. In fact the zones do not even show up. It works fine with web pages though. I am holding down shift as I move the web page and letting go which makes it snap into the desired zone. Is it not possible or am I doing something wrong? Also, since I have a 49" screen ultimately I would like to maximize a small window chart window I have open in a larger zone (three charts to a zone is what I plan to have) but at this time, when I maximize a window that I can mange to get into a zone, it does not expand to the zone size. It expands to the screen monitor size. Is there a way around this? Thank you.
Update: It snapped to attention and it is now working fine. Not sure what happened or what i did, but all is well now. However the issue of getting a smaller window withing a zone to go full screen w/i the zone still exists and from a quick search online this seems to be a common issue w/o any resolution. Some say you must make a virtual monitor, others say its a windows issue. No matter. If/when a solution comes about I'll make the adjustment. Love you other videos also. You have a great presentation style and its all so informative.
What a waste of time none of the apps I open fit in any of the windows I have created
ew playing in windowed non full scrreen.... disgusting
