description Mechanisms for implementing a multi-monitor full screen mode in an application module are disclosed. An application module determines a number (N) of monitors that are coupled to a plurality of video ports of a device. The application module directs a window management module (WMM) that is independent of the application module to display at least one cover window that has dimensions coextensive with dimensions of respective maximum display areas of the N monitors. A primary monitor of the N monitors is determined, and a full screen display area associated with the primary monitor is determined. A main application window of the application module is sized to have dimensions that are at least coextensive with dimensions of the full screen display area, and the WMM is directed to display the main application window on the at least on primary monitor.
