#23 multi-monitor issues

[Anonymous]

Using the latest dev release (r103) it's impossible to place the window on the non-primary monitor (it's impossible to drag it there). If i set it to hide on the edge between the two monitors, it displays a mirrored black square which has the same size as the normal window on the OTHER monitor.

Partially fixed: i can now drag it on the secondary monitor and with autohide disabled it's ok. When i enable autohide it still has the mirroring issue. Another issue: when i restart virtuawin, it positions the window on the primary monitor, even if it was positioned on the secondary before restart.

What is your monitor configuration?
- display resolutions
- configurations (horizontal, vertical, mixed)
- mirroring or extended desktop
- is secondary display already active when VW is started
- Vista or XP

Could you please describe in more details steps when black i-conized window is displayed on secondary display.

the primary screen (positioned to the right) has a resolution of 1200*800. the secondary screen is set to 1280*1024. I'm using extended desktop and secondary is active before starting VW. I'm running windows XP.

When i stick the window to the left side of the primary screen like this:

this is what happens on the secondary screen:

When i stick it on the secondary monitor it starts to flip on and off on both screens like this (and becomes almost impossible to grab again):

I hope that helps, thanks.
