Need some help with viewports...

Okay... I need a little help here with viewports if anyone can pitch in.

I have figured out how to make nUI support dual displays to a degree. However, I'm having an issue with aspect ratio.

As you can see from the first of the two attached screen shots, I can make WoW span both monitors (each 1680x1050) and produce a single 3360x1050 display and I have oriented the world frame in the left half of the display and the user interface in the right half of the display.

The problem is that the the aspect ratio of the display space is not reflecting the window size (3360x1050), it is reflecting the display size (1680x1050) and as a result, instead of having two displays, I really just have one display stretched across two. If I maximize the WoW window in just one display, you can see that I have the exact same screen, just half as wide and with a proper aspect ratio.

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get WoW to recognize the wider display size or to fix the aspect ratio that WoW is using for the WorldFrame and UIParent frames?

I'm all ears for suggestions here.

(note: I had to resize the 3360x1050 image to a width of 1920 for WoWI to accept it)
