Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Monitors position on Windows wallpaper

Hello,
I have a problem while writing the new version of my wallpaper manager, I think you could help me as you certainly faced the same problem.

My desktop has three monitors arranged like that (ignore N°4)

But when I look at the wallpaper file generated by UltraMon, the thrid monitor (the small one) does not have the same position :

By using EnumDisplayMonitors and GetMonitorInfo functions I get these data :

0: 1920x1080 at 1920x0 1: 1920x1080 at 0x0 primary 2: 800x480 at -800x-480

Which corresponds to my arrangement, but differs from the wallpaper file.

How to know where is placed the image in the global wallpaper file to have it displayed on the right monitor ?

I asked this on SO too

Thank you
