Neon Panorama

A wallpaper for every monitor. Or one across them all.

Windows can show a different picture on each monitor, but it hides the option behind a right-click, gives every screen the same fit, and on more machines than it should loses the lot at the next restart. Neon Panorama keeps it: pick your pictures, drop one on each screen, choose how each one fits.

Or spread one picture across all of them. Windows does that in pixels, so on a 4K screen next to a 1440p ultrawide the horizon jumps at the bezel and everything on the wider screen grows by half. Neon Panorama reads how big each monitor really is and lays the picture out in centimetres — a line leaving one screen comes out of the next at the same height and the same angle.

It lives in the tray, where it uses a megabyte or two and waits for a monitor to come or go. The settings window opens when you want it and is gone when you close it. No account, no ads, no tracking. It asks once whether it may send anonymous usage statistics, and sends nothing unless you say yes.

The panorama

Laid out in centimetres, not pixels.

A 27-inch 4K screen packs 64 pixels into every centimetre; a 34-inch 1440p ultrawide, 43. Spread one picture across both by pixels, as Windows does, and it breaks at the bezel. Neon Panorama reads each monitor's real size and lays the picture out on the desk instead.

The panorama spread by pixels across a 4K screen and an ultrawide: the horizon sits much lower on the ultrawide and the mountains there are half as big again
By pixelsWindows' own span. The horizon jumps at the bezel, and everything on the ultrawide is half as big again.
The same panorama laid out by centimetres: one level horizon and one scale running across both screens
By centimetresNeon Panorama. One horizon, one scale, carrying on behind the frames — as if the two screens were windows onto the same view.

Inside the app

Set it once. It stays.

The Neon Panorama window with a picture on each monitor, the main one selected and its fit set to Fill

Wallpapers

A picture of its own on every screen.

Add pictures once and they stay in the app's own library — move or delete the originals and nothing breaks. Click one to put it on the selected monitor, or drag it onto any of them, and choose how each one fits. The lock screen has a tab of its own and picks from the same library.

Every change is on the desktop behind the window as you make it. There is no OK button to forget.

From the studio

Built by Neon Labs.

Neon Panorama is made by Neon Labs, a tiny independent studio making simple, ad-free games — and, now and then, a tool for the desk it was made at. It started on ours: two monitors that Windows could never quite agree with. It will come to the Microsoft Store and as a direct download from this site.
