When I run one desktop for both displays one monitor dispays the image slightly higher than the other. So they don't match up. I looked at display setting and the primary monitor has x and y axis at zero, and the scondary has x axis at 1920 and y at zero. I cannot change this to 0/0 it just keeps defaulting back to 1920. I tried playing with the take taskbar into account setting and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Both monitors are the exact same model dell 24" LCD's set up identically.

That should work fine, please post the system information from UltraMon's About dialog. To access the About dialog, right-click the UltraMon icon in the system tray and select About from the menu.

Thanks for the information, looks okay. The only thing I noticed is that the taskbar on the main monitor is 3 pixels higher than the one on the secondary monitor.

How do I adjust it so it is not 3 pixels higher?

The height is determined by the toolbars which are added to the taskbars, you can't control it manually.

An option for the UltraMon taskbar to match the height of the main taskbar exactly will be considered for a later release.

well I set the second moniter as 1920,-35 and it looks correct to me. Guess this will work.
