Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/add-exceptions-to-move-newly-opened-window-to-current-monitor/?ID=019039cf-b176-72c7-bb22-a433548a642d#3 Fri, 21 Jun 2024 15:26:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/add-exceptions-to-move-newly-opened-window-to-current-monitor/?ID=019039cf-b176-72c7-bb22-a433548a642d#3 DisplayFusion Excellent, thank you Owen.

Now for the advanced part: There is one app where I do want it to open on the current monitor when using monitor profile A, but when I'm in profile B I need it to open on specified monitor X... There seems to be no option to only have that app in compatibility mode when using a specific profile, right?

Actually, come to think of it - when I'm in Profile B, I don't want to use that feature at all anymore (Move newly opened window to current monitor). Any way I can make this specific option profile specific? Could a trigger switch this depending on what profile is loaded? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/add-exceptions-to-move-newly-opened-window-to-current-monitor/?ID=019039cf-b176-72c7-bb22-a433548a642d#2 Fri, 21 Jun 2024 13:58:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/add-exceptions-to-move-newly-opened-window-to-current-monitor/?ID=019039cf-b176-72c7-bb22-a433548a642d#2 DisplayFusion You can add the app to the compatibility settings in DisplayFusion, and turn on "Disable moving new windows to the current monitor (this application only)".

so I have the option to "Move newly opened window to current monitor" enabled, however when I open a game or other specific applications, I don't want them to always open on my primary monitor.
Is there a way to add such "exceptions" other than going through triggers? With triggers, the problem I see is that the app is launched on the wrong monitor and then moved to another, which potentially screws up its settings.

Best regards ]]>
