I have a setup where three monitors are always enabled, but the third one is never visible. I would like to be able to use double-width wallpaper, but I can't because it always gets stretched onto the third monitor. Using triple-width wallpaper means that a third of it can't ever be seen.
I would like to see a feature where you can select which monitors are used for the selected wallpaper (if that makes sense)... In other words, an option to "apply the current double-width wallpaper to monitors 1,2, but not to monitor 3."

If the third monitor isn't used for anything, but needs to stay enabled, go to UltraMon Options > Ignored Monitors, configure the monitor to be ignored, and make sure 'ignore enabled monitors' is checked.
Ignored monitors won't show up in the UltraMon user interface, and the wallpaper will then get stretched across the first two monitors.
If you need to be able to use the third monitor, please let me know how it is used, for example you are running a dedicated application on the monitor and don't need access to the monitor with the mouse, or you do need full access to the monitor, etc.

Agreed. I have a case where I have 3 monitors in a horizontal row as follows, showing the monitor number.
4 1 2
I have a 4th display above the center display as so:
3
4 1 2
I only want the wallpaper shown on displays 4 1 2 because I have a wallpaper that's the correct size for those 3 displays.
However, I want to continue using display 3. When I ignore display 3, the wallpaper is displayed as I like but I can no longer use display 3.
Thanks, and I hope this helps.

Just to wonder but why do you insist on using one wallpaper?
Could you not segment that 1 image into 2 /3 /4
however many into the correct resolution then apply the newly made individual images to there corresponding monitors.
and just leave whichever screen you dont want an image on Blank. I know it sounds like a pain but how long would that really take? 10 minutes?

I too have a similar setup.

I'd like to span a dual monitor wallpaper across screens 1-3. Monitor 2 is on a VESA mount up on the wall, but is used.
There are a lot of dual monitor wallpapers out on the internet, but cutting them up and making separate images for each display isn't very efficient.
What I'd like to see is the ability in the wallpaper configuration to group monitors as display partners so dual/triple wallpapers can be displayed properly across the desired displays, while not impacting any other display/group. Within each group, allow for a wallpaper slideshow. Since there are collections of dual monitor wallpapers and single monitor wallpapers that could be displayed.
