Forums -> UltraMon™ -> 3 Monitors

I just recently got set up with 3 monitors and got your product; I really like the way it allows me to have taskbars on each window. However, I have some basic questions:

(1) Right now the Start button is on Monitor 1. Is there any way to have it appear on Monitor 2 (the middle monitor).

(2) When clicking on a url in internet explorer and a new internet explorer window opens, is there a way to have the new window always open up maximized?

(3) I'm using XP, which used to "stack up" the task bar buttons for an application when the task bar got at all crowded (for example, if I had 10 internet explorer windows open, a single internet explorer button would appear on the taskbar, when I clicked on it I'd get a pop-up menu showing the 10 open interent explorers). I longer have this happen, is there a way to get the "stack up" and pop-up menu when using ultramon?

Thanks,
Steve

1) you could move the Windows taskbar to monitor 2. After moving the UltraMon taskbar to monitor 1, you'll have to right-click the UltraMon taskbar and adjust the 'Show Tasks from' setting.

2) this isn't possible at the moment. I'm considering adding support for this to a future update of the shortcuts feature.

3) you can still use task grouping with the Windows taskbar, but the UltraMon taskbar doesn't support it. This is planned for a future release.

Thanks for the quick reply. I did mange to move the "start" button over to the middle monitor per you instructions. I look forward to upgrades that support having internet explorer windows open maximized.

Thanks,
Steve
