Forums -> UltraMon™ -> resetting taskbar

Hello. Here is a very important question (joke):

Sometimes when I exit my super-critical Battlefield Earth game, the smart taskbar from the second screen is stacked on top of the primary screen taskbar. The only way I can get it back on the second screen is to stop and start UM. Is this expected due to the screen resolution changes?

I'm running Vista 32 Ultimate. Otherwise, UM performs pretty well except that sometimes it will have the apps show up in both the primary and second taskbar.

Thanks in advance!

Egads! I was hit by a Romney-ism. I meant Battlefield 2142, not Battlefied Earth.

Thanks in advance!

Is this with the 3.0 Beta 1 release?

I think this would happen is the secondary monitor is disabled by the game. (ie. when I play a rts game like AOE, though both monitor will function, the game itself doesn't allow me to wander off the game screen, so in a sence the game disables the secondary) ultramon might loose sight of the second monitor but since ultramon still believes there is a second monitor, it will try to put one where ever it can.

I fix this by dragging my defaut taskbar over to the second monitor then back to where I want it, and ultramon will adjust itself. I must adnit though I havent experience this issue, because i just disable the smart taskbar when I game and enable the bar when I exit the a game anyways, due to another issue.
