Slightly related: when running 3 screens like that, put the middle (primary) one in landscape, so the array is like a big H. It works better for videos and code, IMO. You still have two huge portrait fields for documentation/webpages/etc, or 8 portrait-oriented quarters. I usually run 8 portrait-shaped windows quartered on the sides, then two side by side on the middle, which are each approximately square. I don't like my editor window getting too tall.

Yeah, personally, it's been a game changer just being able to load so much more into your field of view. Having two side-by-side makes it really easy to look at other parts of your code and make changes. I'm loving it! I'll give the H method a try for a few days and see how it goes.

    Oh, sorry. I was referencing the OP comment there. > 3 screens like that, put the middle (primary) one in landscape, so the array is like a big H.

Eh, honestly only thing horizontal is good for is media, any documents/code is better in narrower vertical columns. Honestly my perfect screen for work would probably had something like 1:1 ratio, so I can have 2 nice columns of code that are tall enough that can be split horizontally if needed while still being useful.
