Some good dual monitor stuff can be found in Alan's WindowBarKits: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/power-pro/files/Bars_Configs_Snippets/0_AlanMa rtin/ (or http://tinyurl.com/bjnrk) Someone recommended the following program to me for moving windows between monitors: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/wndhop.html Of course PowerPro can do this using [1] below. Ultramon has some useful command-line switches that make it useful for hotkeys/aliases etc. You don't even need to keep it running - just have it do what you need and exit. My favourite is the /t switch that enables/disables the second monitor - which is usually off until I feel I need it (environmentally friendly). Some aliases I have are in [2]. If you only use UltraMon for the secondary taskbar, there is a free program that does only that (I'll track it down for you if you need it). Re: example posted by Alex: > * start on monitor 1 / 2 / 3 / ... Ultramon's UltraMonShortcuts.exe make this sort of thing easy, but of course PP could do just as well. A single script that takes two arguments (program, monitor) with some elements of [1] should be all that's needed. If you only have one other monitor, even better. Those are all the dual mon ideas I have for now. If I think of anything else I'll be sure to let you know. Meanwhile I invite other dual mon users to post useful scripts/ideas.
