View Full Version : FlashFXP starts on wrong monitor

I have a dual-monitor setup, and I would like FlashFXP to start on the second monitor. FlashFXP 2.1 did this just fine. If it was on the 2nd monitor and I closed it, the next time I would start it, it would show up on the second monitor.

FlashFXP 3.0 always starts on the primary monitor, while it should just remember it's last monitor.

Too bad this hasn't been fixed in 3.0.2.1044...

Maybe someone forgot to put it to the todo list? ;)

Does build 1045 work better?

Sorry, haven't had a chance to try it out yet... I'll try it out next wednesday (which is at work, and I took the days off until then)

Ah I see build 1045 is already released. Unfortunately it still always starts on the primary monitor.

Sorry I didn't have the time to test it earlier...

Could you please run the multi-monitor test program in this thread http://forum.flashfxp.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=25381#post25381

Thank You :)

Greetings,

I can not confirm this behavior. On my dual monitor system FlashFXP shows correctly on the monitor on which it was last closed/minimized.

I'll do that next monday or tuesday, when I'm at work again.

In the mean time, I can give you more detailed specs:
Matrox G550 dualhead, latest drivers
Two 1024x768 monitors
Secondary monitor on the right side of the primary monitor
Running UltraMon (don't think it's the very latest version)

[b]Thany[b], That's really odd, with your type of monitor configuration it should work. I'll see if I can figure anything out and get back to you.
