The `position` may contain _negative_ values, so the above example could also be

The position is calculated with the scaled (and transformed) resolution, meaning if

you want your 4K monitor with scale 2 to the left of your 1080p one, you'd use
|

the position `1920x0` for the second screen. (3840 / 2)
|
||||
If the monitor is also rotated 90 degrees (vertical) you'd use `1080x0`.
