Question for the Eyefinity Experts

I have a question. Is it possible to set Eyefinity up so that it will automatically kick in when I launch a particular game, but on the desktop its turned off?

I have a 3 monitor setup and usually just have it always on, but its a bit of a pain when it comes to active windows, minimizing and maximizing and the like - usually I want to maximize a window in one of my 3 monitors, not all 3.

Done a little digging without luck, but I admit I haven't really done a ton of legwork yet.

But I figured I would ask people with experience before I go killing myself looking for a way, especially if it doesn't exist.

Thanks!

IDTS. But there is a hotkey to switch between productivity and eyefinity modes.
 
Install and use Hydravision. BAM maximize/minimize problem solved.
 
Searched and found that you can use hotkey Win+P to toggle manually between extended and duplicate(eyefinity). I tried it and it works, without scrambling the extended mode as presets did when I tried that. I have my monitors identified as 1 2 3 L to R, with 2 Primary.
 
Hydravision doesn't support full screen RDP which is absolutely critical to me.
 
I have never been able to get the hot keys to work correctly thru the catalyst control panel. I've been wondering if there is another option for hot keying different monitor modes and saving presets.
 
i use the custom profile in catalyst control panel regularly..

just set it how you like it and save the preset to a key combo..

for example i setup CTL-ALT+N for Normal, CTL+ALT+T for TV Mode, CTL+ALT+G for Game Mode

these type of pre sets or shortcuts dont always work for me. and when I do get one to work, I cant switch out of it or change it unless I restart the pc. I've tried all different drivers and re installing drivers. So i basically just forgot about trying to make shortcuts or presets.
