Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Firefox opening on unwanted screen
Edward Terry   2006-11-25 20:26
G'day everybody,

I have a problem whereby when I open Firefox it opens in the left hand of my three screens when I would like it in the middle. How does one fix this without moving it between the screens each time it opens?

Thanks for your help.

I'm guessing you have your furthest left monitor set to primary. If you right click on the shortcut to the program and go to "Ultramon - Window" you can set which monitor it opens to, size it is, and location if you want.

kyle,

does ultramon offer the ability to "force" -all- apps to open on whichever monitor a multi-mon user 'wants' them to open? also, will it re-open windows in a 'certain set size' and location on the screen, if that's what a guy wants? apps I consider 'pesky' in that respect are, for example, 'WSftp lite', and EditPad Lite, both of which I use frequently...

thanks for more info :-)

Yo!

If you click the shortcut of for example Firefox with right mouse btn, then go to 'properties'. There should be Ultramon - window & Ultramon - display sections. with those two.. you should be able to accomplish some things you asked for,....

Alternatively, you can just click the Maximize/Restore button to make it into a resizable window, drag it to the other monitor, maximize it again, and then close/reopen Firefox. This set of commands will cause Firefox to remember its new location in the display space.
