Multiple Monitor Support #2

Closed Diviance closed 2 months ago

Diviance commented 3 months ago

Not everything I might want to use this on is something I want running on my primary monitor. So it would be nice if I could choose which monitor to put it on if I have multiple monitors.

invcble commented 3 months ago

Since everyone has their monitors arranged differently, I have no idea how to actually pull that off. Did you try Win + Shift + Left/Right arrow keys to switch the application between monitors?

Diviance commented 3 months ago

Yes. Your app just snaps it back to the main monitor (whichever one is set to the main monitor in Windows settings) immediately.

invcble commented 3 months ago

Can you try closing NoMoreBorder after you have set up the borderless window and then try switching to different screen?

Diviance commented 3 months ago

Hm. On further testing... it appears to be app/game dependent. Some will let me move it around, others (even in ones where you can specify the monitor in the game) will force it to the main screen. Bizarre. I wonder what is doing it.

For example (low resource consumption games to test)...

The Perfect Tower 2 can be moved around with no problem. The Book of Yog, however, forces itself back to the main screen. War Tortoise forces itself to the main screen even when selecting another monitor in the game itself.

I have no idea what is up.

Same here haha. Did you ever try DisplayFusion? It's an popular paid app designed for that purpose. If you don't mind buying it, it could be your solution to all of that.

Diviance commented 3 months ago

I have DisplayFusion, I don't understand what it can do to fix the issue? I mainly use it for the multi-monitor taskbar stuff so I don't know every little thing it can do.
