Hey, i am trying to use the LaunchApp script. However, i am unclear as to what to edit in the script to get it working. Please can someone advise?

Many Thanks,

Chris

The script doesn't need to be edited, it takes the name of the application you want to launch and the monitor to which it should be moved as command line arguments.

For example if you want to create a 'Run application or script' hotkey via UltraMon which runs LaunchApp, the application or script field should look something like this:

"C:\Temp\LaunchApp.vbs" "%WINDIR%\Notepad.exe" 3

This runs the LaunchApp script and tells it to start Notepad and move it to monitor 3.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I have tried this but the scipt does not move the window if the program is already open.

Is there a script that can open a program to a specific monitor,1 for examaple, and then another script that could move it to monitor 2 even if it is open.

Basically, i want to be able to have access to a program on both monitors. If the program is open on monitor 1, i want it to be moved to monitor 2 by a shortcut. Or if it is not yet open on monitor 1, it is opened on monitor 2 by this same shortcut. Thanks, Chris.

Does the application always have the same window caption? If yes, it would be possible to create a script which does this.
