Some remember their position while others don't. After playing around with this feature I don't think it is something I will include with DisplayFusion. ]]> RE: Starting applications on secondary monitor https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/starting-applications-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=47e4664c-4887-474d-8c16-421d85688f67#9 Wed, 27 Feb 2008 16:21:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/starting-applications-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=47e4664c-4887-474d-8c16-421d85688f67#9 DisplayFusion OK you've got me there :-D

Yes I noticed it later.

In any case 400 is way over what I need.

Don't be too sure, 400 is soon used up,unless you're a minimal user
and only do some email,write a few documents and surf the web a little.
In that case Vista is a waste of money

Actually I am using Vista so I don't know which stuff still holds.

It's also possible that Windows doesn't remember the position
because by default it only rembers 400 folders.
To change that check the following links
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/folderviews.htm
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813711
If you want to do it the easy way:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
Go to #2

Simple Utility -Multi monitor Taskbar
http://www.mediachance.com/free/multimon.htm
Puts a button on the title bar to move to other monitor.
Or use MultiArrows only - same page - no taskbar

Use a program like HydraVision (ATI)
Uses position memory as well.
NVidea may have something similar.

Thanks,

I guess this is true for Office apps. too.
My problem is with all other apps. that do not remember their last location. ]]> RE: Starting applications on secondary monitor https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/starting-applications-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=47e4664c-4887-474d-8c16-421d85688f67#2 Fri, 22 Feb 2008 15:16:42 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/starting-applications-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=47e4664c-4887-474d-8c16-421d85688f67#2 DisplayFusion I'm not using a laptop, but I have certain apps that start in the second window automatically after I've used [Ctrl][Win][x]; Outlook shows up there every time I log in. I used [Ctrl][Win][x] to move it there and then maximized it. I don't think I did anything else to it. ]]> Starting applications on secondary monitor https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/starting-applications-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=47e4664c-4887-474d-8c16-421d85688f67 Fri, 22 Feb 2008 06:37:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/starting-applications-on-secondary-monitor/?ID=47e4664c-4887-474d-8c16-421d85688f67 DisplayFusion Hi,
Is it possible to set certain applications to be invoked in the secondary monitor?
I have a small laptop screen and a large secondary and have to move each window of a new app to the secondary with CTRL-Win-X and would like to save that.
TIA ]]>
