Your using 3 monitors might be contributing to the problem. Have you
tried testing with a dual setup? Just toggled my cintiq as the primary
and virtual 'left side' display. SI opens up on the cintiq and it works
under dual layout just fine. You might try matching the resolution on
your monitors to see if that changes the behavior any. But you mentioned
that in order for windows to recognize a tablet display it must be set
as the primary monitor and I'm saying that i've got it as the secondary
with no such issues in the hopes that might help you troubleshoot :-) .

The tablet counts as my 3rd monitor. I've read several cintiq users
with the same issue & the solution was the same. The tablet must be
the primary display.
Maybe it only shows up with a dual monitor plus tablet configuration?
I've got the latest drivers for everything, so I'm not sure how to fix it.

I don't have this problem. I use a wacom cintiq 21ux with windows
7 set as secondary monitor using nvidia driver. Might be an issue
with the display driver, tablet driver or a combination.

That's the problem. In order for Windows to recognize a
tablet/monitor, it must be the primary monitor. Softimage wants
to always open on the primary monitor, but if it's the tablet,
Softimage defaults to 1440x900 and refuses to resize, even when I
drag it to another screen.
If I make my 24" the primary, then the tablet's cursor appears
there rather than on the tablet itself. So there's no way to use
it if it's not set to be the primary.

you need to make the monitor you want the primary monitor, in
the control panel. you can drag and drop the monitor in the
right order afterward in that applet

Is there a switch that can be set to get Softimage to
open on a specific monitor?
I just added a Cintiq-like cheap Chinese tablet and
Softimage keeps opening on it. The problem is, when I
drag it back to the proper monitor, it doesn't realize
that my resolution is 1920x1200 and so when I go
fullscreen, it only resizes to the size of the tablet.
Frustrating for sure!
Thanks,
Paul
