Initial screen number to start the viewer window

Post by Jack_ii »

Hi
I previously use RealVNC and toggle to UltraVNC (great job).
With RealVNC, I have create shortcuts files (I put on the desktop) to my remote machines.
In these text files, ie FileName.VNC, a parameter named "Monitor" stores the screen number to show the viewer window.
Example :
Monitor=\\.\DISPLAY2

UltraVNC doesn't care with this parameter and the viewer windows always appear on my screen numbered 1 (left screen for me).

It could be a good idea to solve this simple problem.

Great feature request, I hope to see this implemented.

In the meantime it looks like DisplayFusion might do what you require. http://www.displayfusion.com/
Force your application's windows to open on a specific monitor. Configure each application with it's own custom settings.
