Dreams stop animating when 1 monitor has full screen app and other monitor(s) do not

Thursday, January 29, 2009 by Prince_By-Tor_And_The_Snow-Dog | Discussion: DeskScapes

So, I have 2 monitors (who doesn't these days), and when I have something full screen on *any* monitor, even though the other monitor(s) do not have a full screen application, the background dream stops animating...  Are there options to control this behaviour?

Thanks

Yep it sure does. ATI or Nvidia cideo card? Mine's Nvidia.

Which OS are you on?

I am using Vista-64 (I also have Win7-64, but I am not trying it on that OS), dual core, 8GB.  I am using an ATI video card.

I noticed there is a right-click option to "Play Dreamscape" on the "other" monitor, so for now, that's fine, though I would have though it would do it by itself (maybe there are registry keys or settings to control this?).
