Hi,

I think, the simplest way to do this would be, that for all driver one could specify base co-ordinates, defaulting to 0,0.
The driver would get the co-ordinates relative to that base (that is for driverY = originalY - baseY).
This could be implemented in the core, where the driver gets called.
Well, if both X and Y has a base, the displays could be placed in any shape. E.G. 3 displays could be placed in the shape of the letter L…

This way no "really special" treating is necessary, nor the drivers had to be rewritten.
(Maybe recompiled, for the base co-ordinates to be stored in the driver data space?)
