Thank-you for your patience! After trying another Windows 7 system with free version I realized some settings with Aero or windows 7 themes may prevent what I am seeing. My particular situation I've finally figured out how to capture a multi-monitor, cross monitor region so you could see what I see.

The first application to be moved to right monitor ... for me that's outlook, is where I typically have 15-20 stacked windows.

I may need help understanding what else I can capture about my desktop windows 7 settings, since I have a windows 7 workstation at home which shows each window side by side as a large thumbnail, which is not the setting our business requires for our "at work" station.

Thanks for looking into this. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-monitor-stacked-icons-titles-cross-to-left-monitor/?ID=810ad4a6-fcae-4855-ba36-30ebc4b73958#2 Thu, 10 Jul 2014 19:20:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-monitor-stacked-icons-titles-cross-to-left-monitor/?ID=810ad4a6-fcae-4855-ba36-30ebc4b73958#2 DisplayFusion Thanks for letting us know about this. Does the list span the entire second monitor as well as spill over onto the Primary monitor? We made the width auto-size based on the length of the window title, but I have a feeling we didn't specify a maximum size ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-monitor-stacked-icons-titles-cross-to-left-monitor/?ID=810ad4a6-fcae-4855-ba36-30ebc4b73958 Wed, 09 Jul 2014 19:55:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multi-monitor-stacked-icons-titles-cross-to-left-monitor/?ID=810ad4a6-fcae-4855-ba36-30ebc4b73958 DisplayFusion Stacked icons - Title of tabs or windows for the stacked icon application are partially showing on main/primary monitor.

The way it stands, it's also more difficult to read the titles of the windows because they're interrupted by the crossing two displays.

Could this be fixed with simple config change to the current release? I wasn't able to find a quick answer in researching. If not, potential enhancement so the left side of the stacked icon window titles snap to the left side of the current display?

In my specific instance, it's just two monitors. The right monitor is the extended display of the main display on the left. The Primary/Main/Left display is straight ahead of my docked laptop; Multi-Monitor taskbars "enabled", Taskbar mode "All taskbars show relevant windows".

Easy to recreate. Two or more tabs or windows as left (or position 2,3,4 from left). Click on the stack. The window titles are displayed. It happens with any of the left-most stacked icon window titles. Pretty much the default settings ... so a high percentage of DF users will benefit from improving this.

Background on why this is important to me:
I'm often presenting remotely to clients, and sharing out by entire desktop on the my main display. On the right monitor I need to keep the many windows of my Outlook, Explorer, alternate browser windows open for active research during extended Q&A. Unfortunately, because the Outlook window titles bleed over to the main display, the attendees of the presentation can all see the window titles I'm reviewing. With Outlook, I sometimes have 10+ email windows open, and need to review many searched, archived message windows for answers. Same case with the stacked Explorer windows, where I'm in multiple directories. The only way to get around the issue is to open other applications in advance of the presentation, move them to the right secondary display, and then drag all of these windows to the left side of the taskbar on the secondary monitor, but this is quite inconvenient.

Thanks in advance, for any quick advice on how to correct this with the release I am on, or consideration of feature enhancement in the future. I realize the developer(s) may be dealing with Microsoft's default way to show the stacked icon window titles.

Win7 Ent 64-bit, v6.0.0.0.0 Pro (latest update as of 7/9, v6.0 from release June 18 '14)

This doesn't change the fact, I'm a very Happy DisplayFusion user ]]>
