Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Disable monitor and don't move applications

Hi, does anyone have am UltraMon script that will disable monitor 1 but will not move the applications that are currently running on that monitor?

When using the current script I disable the monitor but XBMC then moves to the other active monitor. I just want the monitor to turn off and leave XBMC where it was.
Reason for this is when playing music so don't need screen on.

thanks.

Richard.

This won't work, the windows get moved by the operating system, and UltraMon can't move windows off the desktop.

A couple of other things you could try:

- blank the monitor instead of disabling it by running the UltraMon Screen Saver Player add-on

- hide or minimize XBMC (if possible)

Let me know if you would like more information about implementing this in your script.

Minimizing XBMC and then disabling the monitor worked a treat.
many thanks.
