I searched but can't find a solution.

I want to open any program in the current monitor i am in. I can't find an option for it. it always opens in my main monitor. any way to always open up in the current monitor?

Hi Luis;

If I read you correctly, go to Settings, Taskbar, and check the "Launch Start Menu shortcuts on current monitor" check box. You may have to restart DF for the setting to take effect.

This will force any app to launch on the monitor that the Start Menu you selected the app from is on.

Example: Pick an app from Monitor #3 Start menu, and the app will launch on Monitor #3.

You also can go to Settings, Window Location, and set up a specific apps to launch on a specific monitor.

Regards;

You can also setup a Window Location rule to force all new windows to go to the current monitor. Please see the attached screenshot for reference :)

Thanks!

@Gershy: Did you try it with any other applications? Word is a bit finicky because it reuses windows rather than creating new ones.

Hey Keith!

Can you make an update to the new DF version? :D

I see that now we have some new Trigger function and ... I think you have to do it like this: ??
