when i press the show desktop button, all my windows minimize approprately. however, when i click again to restore, whatever was on my taskbar on the second monitor goes to the first monitor and the buttons on the second monitor no longer function.

Make sure you have installed the latest Smart Taskbar patch.

Let me know if that doesn't fix the problem.

much better, however, when i click the hide desktop button the second time, it only restores the windows on my main monitor, no my second one. nothing major, but it is kind of anoying. maybe you could have it somehow replace it with your own that had more options. like having two+ icons, one bor showing each desktop.

I have noticed that as well, I'll look into it. Should be fixed in the next release.

Show Desktop on a specific monitor is planned for one of the next releases.

Hi, was this feature ever implemented? I want to "Show Desktop" to only apply to one monitor.

Thanks

Not yet, but it's still on the list. Should make it into UltraMon 3.
