I have a 3 monitors setup on Windows 7. Let's say I have a 15 inch that act as a control monitor that I'll call A, and two 17 inches that I use to display a slideshow. I'll number them B and C.
Everything works fine, as long as no one unplugs a monitors or turns it down.
In which case, Windows notices it and reorders it's windows index.
I previous case, say I had:
System screen 0 mapped to monitor A
System screen 1 mapped to monitor B
System screen 3 mapped to monitor C
If someone closes monitor B it becomes:
System screen 0 stays mapped to monitor A
System screen 1 becomes mapped to monitor C
And it gets worse if the system monitor (index 0) is turned of by mistake.
This mixes up the whole system with ugly consequences, like control interface ending up in a slideshow screen.
What I'm looking for is a way to somehow make sure that even when a display is turned off, Windows won't reconfigure its display setup, or that if it does, something will work around this problem and always make for me that Windows systems screens indexes stay mapped to the correct monitor.
Can Ultramon do that ?

UltraMon can't prevent this.
I'm also not sure if there's a good solution for this, for example what would you want to happen if the control monitor gets turned off, should the control application get closed or minimized instead of getting moved to one of the remaining enabled monitors?
