Seems the more simple program.

I'd say GridMove is a not very simple application, so it might take some more time to get used to, and get the configuration just right.

I am trapped in configuring. Just after window+G hotkey.
I don't understand the instructions or help.

So I think i need software to divide the 52" monitor in four independant displays and make a lot of operations with this option.

can you describe in more detail what you mean by "a lot of operations" ?

And how independent do you want the displays to be ?

Nothing special. Configurable. Better if easy to configurate. GridMove may be the answer, but I have problems with it.

a lot of operations - configurable . Able to change windows, size. Able to configure one program or another to appear in that window.

the way I use it is:

Win+G
=> you should see a grid with numbers overlaid on the screen
=> pressing a number will move the active window to that position
If you dont want the layout shown. pressing the 'N' key will move onto the next layout, press again for the next, and so on

If you want a layout that is not included, have a look at the gridmove section in the forum, you can add new layouts, or make your own.

Disclaimer, I've never used gridmove with multiple monitors

EDIT// this on Win.7 (see Ath's post below)

Ath:
GridMove's default hotkey Win-G isn't going to work on Windows 10 (and probably Win 8.x) as it has a different function predefined. (I tried that already and changed it to Win-W)
