was such feature suggested yet ?
for some reasons i mainly use my secondery monitor, while the first monitor is sometimes off.
it would be helpful if new windows would`nt open on the other monitor.

Thanks for your suggestion, I'll consider it for a future release.
You could also do this with the shortcut feature.

thanks for the hint, but (just to make sure) i`m talking about windows that open inside a working application too (some of them are not opened in the same monitor where the application is).

oh, just forgot.. i think it would be nice if files that i download (for example) to the desktop, can appear automatically at the monitor i choose.
thanks.

Not sure what you mean, do you want double-clicking a desktop icon cause the application to be opened on the monitor with the icon?

no. what i mean is that when i download something from the internet (to the desktop), the file`s icon always show up on the primary monitor. so, i have to turn on the primary monitor to get to the file.

BTW, looks like the easiest solution would be to create two display profiles: one with monitor 1 disabled, monitor 2 primary, the other with monitor 1 primary and monitor 2 enabled.
This way you wouldn't have any problems with icons and applications being placed on the wrong monitor.
To create a display profile, go to UltraMon menu > Display Profiles > New Display Profile.

My three monitors are always on and look like this from left to right:
Monitor3(Left/Secondary), Monitor1(Center/Primary), Monitor2(Right/Secondary)
I basically use Monitor3 on the left as a master taskbar, and for constantly managing files on the desktop. For this reason I do not typically run programs on Monitor3.
When new icons are saved to the desktop they show up on Monitor1(Center/Primary), behind my running programs. I am looking for a way of forcing all new icons to display on Monitor2(Left/Secondary).
It would also be nice to have desktop icons auto arrange in a specified monitor order. I know how they currently auto arrange on each monitor. I am talking about so that when the left monitor becomes full, it will start creating files on the center monitor, etc..
Also, I really like how you don't have to create an account to make a quick post on this forum. Thanks.

Sorry, I should have said Monitor3 instead of Monitor2 in the following sentence:
"When new icons are saved to the desktop they show up on Monitor1(Center/Primary), behind my running programs. I am looking for a way of forcing all new icons to display on Monitor2(Left/Secondary)."
