I've also added your vote to an existing feature request to separate the mini Start screen and current monitor options :)

Thanks! ]]> Make the Windows 8 mini Start Screen behave the similarly to the normal start menu. https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/make-the-windows-8-mini-start-screen-behave-the-similarly-to-the-normal-start-menu/?ID=5dc36002-7f10-4c2a-abfa-765d29c02f97 Thu, 22 May 2014 00:18:27 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/make-the-windows-8-mini-start-screen-behave-the-similarly-to-the-normal-start-menu/?ID=5dc36002-7f10-4c2a-abfa-765d29c02f97 DisplayFusion I was wondering if it would be possible to make the mini start screen behave in the same way that the normal/old start menu did. For example when the windows key is pressed the mini start menu appears and stays on screen until the windows key is pressed again or an already open application on the taskbar is selected. It would be great if it was possible for it to loose focus from the screen when clicking either the desktop top or on an open application window already on the screen.

Another suggestion I have would be to have an option to use the mini start screen but keep it on the screen that it was opened on. Currently I believe the only option that exists is to enable the mini start screen and make it switch screens depending on which one is in focus. ]]>
