First off, kudos for such an awesome tool!

SNAP & LAYOUT POSITIONING
My request is merely for when I generate link to see the layout, it gets messed up on another machine or when zooming in an out. I couldn't seem to find a way to center the screen on the desk, but it would be nice to have a way to snap the edges of the monitors to each other or an offset of the desk (maybe even offset of the monitors too). Snapping to the monitor edges as well as centering to the relative edge or connecting corners would be ideal for keeping the layout together. Another helpful piece to this is a way to lock to a relative position on the desk or something of that sort.

SYSTEM DISPLAY VIEW
Another feature I was uncertain about would be related to the resolution because the size of the screen doesn't always match what the system display shows:
image

Monitor 1 in that image could easily be taller than monitor 2 (say a 30" 21:9 1080p monitor vs 27" 16:9 1080p monitor), but in the system display they show as the same height. For me this is something I like to be aware of when I'm searching for products of a setup.

CURVED SCREEN RADIUS
Since the radius on screens seems to be 1800, 1500, and 1000 (in mm) it would be nice to have that as a specific option even though it might not seem like a huge difference between them, it is something I am particular about when product searching.

LANDSCAPE VERTICAL DOCUMENTS HALF-SCREEN
In Windows 10 & 11 I like to drag windows to half-screens and quarter screens, after turning the monitor on there is a vertical documents view and I like it for portrait monitors but in landscape it just centers the image. It would be nice to have previews of vertical half-screen and possibly quarter screen options on monitors especially for the different ratios in a same setup.

FUTURE THOUGHTS
All my other thoughts or ideas are more for future development if you wanted to have a more desk setup simulator. This would be like having keyboard placement to see a size comparison of how the screens look compared to the screens or the different size desktop towers and laptops, not to mention tablets and phones. I've kept the details limited, but mentioning it as a broad thought in case it wasn't already in the possibilities because it's definitely something I would enjoy using to determine desk/chair height or if everything fits with a height of a ceiling, or how it all would be in an L-shape or corner desk, but especially if I am working on an adjustable height desk where the above height clearance matters. Monitor mounts also can be tricky to find for a setup that has 2 rows of monitors that aren't all the same size. Either way, a program to simulate all of that would be incredibly helpful.
