Example: Screen layout with an empty border between the screens

To obtain a better total effect, you should take into account the space that may remain unusable between the

displays, due to the screen frames. In this example, we consider a thickness of 80 pixels for the screen frames.

To create the final layout, you must sum the internal borders thickness to the viewBox parameters, both in the

(x,y) position and in the (w)idth, (h)eight sizes.

The following example creates the same grid as the previous one, but empty internal borders are also

calculated:

xmlns:spx="http://www.amx.com/namespace/1.0/spx"

height="100%" width="100%"

spx:begin="T000000" viewBox="0 0 2640 2320" >

<spx:multiScreen>

<spx:screen viewBox="0 0 1280 720" xml:id="TopLeft"/>

<spx:screen viewBox="1360 0 1280 720" xml:id="TopRight"/>

<spx:screen viewBox="0 800 1280 720" xml:id="MidLeft"/>

<spx:screen viewBox="1360 800 1280 720" xml:id="MidRight"/>

<spx:screen viewBox="0 1600 1280 720" xml:id="BotLeft"/>

<spx:screen viewBox="1360 1600 1280 720" xml:id="BotRight"/>

</spx:multiScreen>

Example: Screen layout with “Spread displays”

A completely free pattern may be adopted for your screens: empty spaces between them are possible and

custom positions can be assigned. Screen contents can also overlap, increasing the sense of continuity between

displays. In this example, we consider a wide area with some screens only covering a partial area of the whole

space and with an overlapping corner.
