Control Center 1.99 & multi-mons (and where is Stardock Support???)
Thursday, April 6, 2006 by El_Squiddo | Discussion: Object Desktop
I posted this problem with RightClick some time back and never got a response. Now the new control center (base on ObjectBar) is also exhibiting the SAME behavior.
I have a 3 monitor system set up where my primary monitor is the center screen. The monitors are as follows/
[A] [B (primary)] [C]
If I start a program that opens a window on monitor B or C, the window comes up fine. However if I open a program that opens a window on A, CC intercepts the window and moves it to monitor B. This happens 100% of the time and is extremely annoying there does not seem to be any way to override this behavior. The exact same thing happens if I run RightClick, which is why I can no longer run this program.
Is this the correct forum to post these support issues? I have NEVER ONCE received an official Stardock response to my posts for support, nor have I received replies to the emails I have sent off to Stardock. At this point, ObjectDesktop is slowly becomming unusable to me and I am increasingly dissapointed with starock's support system. I have been a user since version 1.0 in OS/2 and I love OD, but this is just getting ridiculuous.

Some times it's the stardock email server that blocks the email. But a return email is sent. That happend to my email address related to thomthom.net. But I think it's because I use my IPS smtp server to send emails.

Have you never even had an auto reply from Stardock support? If so it sounds like something is blocking e-mails from Stardock as I am fairly certain we send out an auto reply always.
Regarding your issue, I found a similar problem with the bandvwm and reported it to the developers of that component. Right now it looks like it is unable to handle negative coordinates and thats why it is shifting the window onto the primary display.
I cannot see why RightClick would have this problem unless you have the bandvwm added to that.
