Can you let me know the following?
  • For regular applications, let me know the full path to their EXE, and what monitor split you want them to be on.
  • For websites, let me know the website URLs and what monitor split you want them to be on.

If you want to email these details to keep them private, please send them to support@binaryfortress.com and refer to this Discussions topic. ]]> RE: Open specifics windows/chrome on specifics emplacements or website https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-specifics-windowschrome-on-specifics-emplacements-or-website/?ID=2acad5bd-a9ec-4092-96b7-a1b49b77dbf6#7 Sun, 06 Aug 2017 21:11:39 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-specifics-windowschrome-on-specifics-emplacements-or-website/?ID=2acad5bd-a9ec-4092-96b7-a1b49b77dbf6#7 DisplayFusion

You can replace the BFS.Window.MoveToMonitor with something like this:

BFS.Window.MoveToMonitorMaximized(201, windowHandle);

The above example assumes that you want to maximize the window on monitor split 2.1.

Regarding Chrome saying there's no internet connection, I can't even imagine what that would be, sorry! DisplayFusion just says "Launch chrome.exe with this URL," nothing fancy going on there :(


Ok it does not work, the window was not moved on the right screen and did not get to the right size.
In addition, always this big problem that makes the windows open chrome with this code do not connect on the internet and that makes all this useless :( ]]> RE: Open specifics windows/chrome on specifics emplacements or website https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-specifics-windowschrome-on-specifics-emplacements-or-website/?ID=2acad5bd-a9ec-4092-96b7-a1b49b77dbf6#6 Sun, 06 Aug 2017 21:03:32 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-specifics-windowschrome-on-specifics-emplacements-or-website/?ID=2acad5bd-a9ec-4092-96b7-a1b49b77dbf6#6 DisplayFusion and what is the command to add to fit with the monitor split settings that i configure?

I use this settings on the right screen sometimes with a 3x1

You have my vote :)

Its ok for the script now, but i have a strange problem, sometimes the chrome windows said that i'm not connected to the internet when i use the script, sometimes its ok.
If i open multiples chrome windows manually, its ok

For the 30/70 on the main screen and 3.1 on the right screen yes i use the monitor split settings in DF
I think i need to add some parameters to specify the 30/70, 3x1 on each screen but i dont know how

thx :) ]]> RE: Open specifics windows/chrome on specifics emplacements or website https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-specifics-windowschrome-on-specifics-emplacements-or-website/?ID=2acad5bd-a9ec-4092-96b7-a1b49b77dbf6#3 Fri, 04 Aug 2017 14:17:25 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-specifics-windowschrome-on-specifics-emplacements-or-website/?ID=2acad5bd-a9ec-4092-96b7-a1b49b77dbf6#3 DisplayFusion We're planning to add an official feature for this type of thing in the future, so I will add your vote :)

For your script, take out the "IntPtr " at the start of lines 27 and 43, since windowHandle was already declared earlier in the script.

For the 30/70 sizing, are you using Monitor Splits for that? ]]> RE: Open specifics windows/chrome on specifics emplacements or website https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-specifics-windowschrome-on-specifics-emplacements-or-website/?ID=2acad5bd-a9ec-4092-96b7-a1b49b77dbf6#2 Thu, 03 Aug 2017 12:38:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/open-specifics-windowschrome-on-specifics-emplacements-or-website/?ID=2acad5bd-a9ec-4092-96b7-a1b49b77dbf6#2 DisplayFusion i tried something like this, but i have
-an error message on line 27 and 43 with 'windowHandle'
- my center screen if 30% left and 70% right with windows management, but the script open the windows on left and right in this 30% and don't respect the 30/70 ratio

I think it could be the solution, but i don't really know how to correct :D

Thanx :)

Do you know if it is possible to launch automatically the same programs / windows in the same locations with display fusion?

I have 3 screens. Every day when I turn on the computer, I open two windows chrome on the right screen to display twitter and google calendar
On the left screen, double windows explorer, and on the main screen, two chrome windows again, with my main navigation window on the right side at 70% of the screen (thanx monitor configuration) and another one to often display a site that I refresh automatically.

It becomes painful to do that every day, to open everything up, to organize..

Is there a way with display fusion to do the same thing, like recording all this as a kind of session and reopen it all at once?

I used sometimes a script found here to open two explorer instances, but i'm not able to adapt this to ad multiple chrome windows with specifics websites to open where i want

Code
Copy
Select All

using System;
using System.Drawing;

public static class DisplayFusionFunction
{
public static void Run()
{
//Open the first Explorer instance and move it to the left half of monitor 3
BFS.Application.Start("C:\\Windows\\explorer.exe");
BFS.General.ThreadWait(1000);
IntPtr windowHandle = BFS.Window.GetFocusedWindow();
BFS.Window.MoveToMonitor(1, windowHandle);
BFS.General.ThreadWait(250);
BFS.Window.MoveToLeftMonitorHalf(windowHandle);

//Open the first Explorer instance and move it to the left half of monitor 3
BFS.Application.Start("C:\\Windows\\explorer.exe", "D:");
BFS.General.ThreadWait(1000);
windowHandle = BFS.Window.GetFocusedWindow();
BFS.Window.MoveToMonitor(1, windowHandle);
BFS.General.ThreadWait(250);
BFS.Window.MoveToRightMonitorHalf(windowHandle);
}
}


Thanx :)
Thank you ]]>
