ABSTRACT
Wideband displays fill our field of view, creating new
opportunities to develop effective visual interfaces. Although
multiple monitors are becoming an affordable way to create
wideband displays, the resulting seams create gaps in words and
divide diagonal lines into nonaligned segments. We present
several novel user interface techniques for creating seam-aware
