Morning all, I'm trying to set up triggers to possibly do the following:
- Open a program on the monitor the mouse is on
- UNLESS: It's a full screen program (game) then open that on the middle monitor
- Any children the original window spawns will open on the monitor that program is on (for installers and such) I think if I turn on once per process ID that will solve this issue.
Is this even possible? It's mostly for the full screen games when I forget to put my mouse on the middle monitor.

Hello,
1. You can create a trigger that uses the "Window Created" event, add your app to the "Process Filename" match condition, and then use the "Move window to mouse cursor monitor" action to do that.
2. Most games will force themselves to your primary monitor anyway, we can't override that if they're fullscreen.
3. It depends on how the window launches, but in the DisplayFusion Settings > Window Management tab, you can try turning on "Move newly opened application windows to current monitor" and it should do that for you.
Hope that helps!
