hi i recently decided to try multiboxing and while reading one of the tutorial thread was instructed to make a batch file to run maximizer from 5 separate wow directories etc to set up 1 main window on my left monitor and 4 equal sized windows on my right monitor.
i made the file and ran it and the results weren't as expected... the height and general location of all the windows was correct, but the windows were all much to narrow, with the right hand margin or coordinate or whatever being too far to the left. i wasn't able to figure out how to fix it.... help would be appreciated.

this is what my screen looks like after running the bat file.
my resolution is 2560x1024 (1280x1024 on each monitor) and i copied my bat file from the thread How to Box 5 accounts (or 2 or 3 or 4) with ONE computer ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=1767') and it is as follows:
REM batch file to launch 5 evenly spaced wows
REM Left monitor
c:\wow1\maximizer.exe --margin 0,0,0,1280
REM upper right of right mon
c:\wow2\maximizer.exe --margin 0,512,1920,0
REM upper left of right mon
c:\wow3\maximizer.exe --margin 0,512,1280,640
REM lower right of right mon
c:\wow4\maximizer.exe --margin 512,0,1920,0
REM lower left of right mon
c:\wow5\maximizer.exe --margin 512,0,1280,640
