Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Separate powerpoint documents on different monitors
Stephen Vetter   2005-11-10 11:02
UltraMon v2.6 running on Win XP (SP1 -corporate standard...)

Generally very happy with UltraMon...

When I open multiple word or excel documents I am able to direct each individual document to a selected monitor.

However, when I open several powerpoint documents I am not able to get the same behaviour - i.e. if I try to switch one powerpoint document to the other monitor all of powerpoint documents switch...

Some WIBNIs (wouldn't it be nice if...)
- task grouping as per Windows XP
- Monitor-specific "Show-desktop" icon

The only solution I'm aware of is the following:

1) go to PowerPoint Options > View and uncheck 'Windows in Taskbar'

2) maximize the main PowerPoint window to the desktop

3) if the document windows are maximized, restore them to normal size

4) you can now move each document window to a different monitor

Thanks for your suggestions, per-monitor Show Desktop is planned, task grouping will be considered for UltraMon 3.
