Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Change Display at program launch

First, I'm probably not the first one to say it but: Ultramon is a MUST HAVE when you use more then one monitor. It's probably the best program I saw in years.

First question: When the MAC version? I switch MAC/PC a couple of time a day and it become very irritating working with a quad G5 without UltraMon.

Next: my more important question. Here's the situation:
I have a 3 monitors setup, all in extended view. (NVidia 6600GT VGA and 5500 PCI) One of the editing programs I use dont allow more then 2 monitors. I tweak the system for when I use this program, I switch 1 monitor to the Clone(mirror) option with the Fullscreen video playback ON. This way my 2 other monitors display the program and the third one the playback in real time. Everything work great, but having to change the display settings everytime is getting annoying.
I tried the UltraMon settings to automatically switch it for me, but it say that UltraMon dont allow it with 3 monitors. (Work well with 2 monitors) result, the program dont start. + the display dont change back when it exit (Probably du to the force quit)
Is there a way to correct that? Or maybe I dont use UltraMon the good way.

(sorry for my bad english...)

Currently I have no plans for a Mac version of UltraMon.

Are you using the shortcut option to disable a monitor when launching the application, and then restore the original display settings when the application closes?

This should work fine with 3 monitors. Do you get an error message when launching the application via the customized shortcut?
