PB debug window and second monitor

Post by coco2 »

Is it possible to get the debug window to remember to open on the second monitor? Seems to keep moving back to the main screen.

Edit: I'm currently on Windows 7 with PB 5.22 LTS

Edit2: It only does it when maximised on the second monitor. If it is a normal window it remembers the position fine

Maybe try multiple monitors managing software, e.g. UltraMon? It has many configuration options for sticking a window to a particular monitor.

...that's strange, it does remember it's location here. As a side note, I find MultiMon Free is excellent:

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.

Hi all
I would like to support this as a feature request!
Should be easy to add it like I do it with my programs.
I use the full screens resolution to remember the window positions for each monitor configuration!
The content of the preference file i.e. is looking like this.

Code: Select all

[Desktop1920x1080]
WindowPosX=120
WindowsPosY=499
[Desktop3840x1080]
WindowsPosX=2000
WindowsPosY=499
Take care.

Just because it worked doesn't mean it works.
