[Features]: Bezel Compensation #40

Problem or Use Case

I am using SpreadPaper on a triple-vertical 1440x2560 display array. While the image spanning is excellent, the physical monitor frames create a "gap" in the continuous image. In my setup, there is a 73-pixel (approx. 1.7cm) physical gap between each monitor. Currently, this break in the geometry disrupts the illusion of a single, cohesive view through a three-pane window.

Proposed Solution

I suggest adding a "Bezel Offset" or "Gap" setting in pixels. This would allow the user to define a "hidden" area between the screens. By shifting the image crop for the second and third monitors by the width of the bezel, the viewer’s brain will naturally "fill in" the missing information behind the plastic frames. This corrects the current "sliced and stretched" appearance and creates an accurate perspective across the array.

Alternatives Considered

SpreadPaper is already a highly polished tool. Adding bezel compensation would elevate it for power users and "multi-monitor nerds" who require next-level visual accuracy. As a video editor, this level of precision would turn a great utility into a standout for multiple monitor environments.
