object dock dual monitor problem
Sunday, June 24, 2012 by hangdawg | Discussion: Stardock Support General
hi i was using object dock free but i do have the pro version but using 2 monitors when i enable the secondary monitor with ultramon it acts funny like missing pieces of desktop background but if i log off then back on it fixes it so i un-installed objectdock and installed rocket dock and no problems by the way im using windows 7 64 bit just wondering if theres a way to fix this thanks

yeah ive tried display fusion works good but no easy way of enabling or disabling the second monitor maybe with setting a profile but i havent tried seems way over complicated for such a simple task that ultra mon does so easy in its right click menu thanks for replying 
but i will probably just stick with rocket dock

Sure there is. Right click the systray icon, choose Monitor Configuration.

I have Win 7 64 and two monitors, absolutely no problems. The only thing I have problems with are two DesktopX Widgets (this is a problem with their creation) that hide when I shut down my main monitor for a while. Object dock is not a problem. I took off Fusion and Ultramon as they were not worth the hassle. Everything works as advertised, why mess with it?

yeah it only happens when i enable the second monitor objectdock acts weird but i log off then back on and that fixes it i dont run the second monitor until i have to

What I find annoying is this:
If I load OD and then click in an adjacent monitor before OD is fully loaded, some of the docks end up in that clicked monitor. Rather than where I want them.

I know this may not help. But I use 3 monitors with Display Fusion and Object Dock Plus with no problems. Ultramon is good, maybe try DisplayFusion?
