Description

It'd be nice if GameLink had the option to move the two screens apart a bit to add space between them, having both of them merge into one screen can look odd at times. Either an option to add a margin between or two have shaders apply to each screen separately.

Research direction

The issue names GameLink but provides no file, test, or entry point. First locate the GameLink rendering path and determine whether screen spacing or separate shader application is the intended approach. Done should be a clearly chosen behavior that visibly separates the screens as requested and has coverage for the resulting presentation.
