Advice
Need some help, I’ve got a similar set up like the one below in the picture since the wife is working from home. If I’m playing box or any other game , do you know how I can stretch the image from the middle screen on to the two vertical screens as well so the image will look like I’ve got a wide screen

Not easily - mainly because you've got 2 different resolutions. If they were all landscape or all portrait it would be easy.
Re: Advice
(at least it wasn't easy a few years ago when I ran 3 screens)
Re: Advice
I agree with Donkey -- with that setup it will be difficult. What graphics card do you have?

Hahaha
I thought I would take advantage of the wife bring home her two screens from work and see if I could extend the screen image
A wide screen or VR headset is in the pipeline

Re: Advice
I know Stu runs 3 monitors in BoX , he might be worth a shout.

Re: Advice
I ran 3 monitors until I got VR and still run 3 for Cliffs. The issue is that the outer monitors have drastically different aspect ratios than the center. It is really up to the video card whether it can handle it or not, but most likely not without a lot of fiddling. And fiddling leads to fragile setups that will go tits up at the worst posible time in a dogfight...
