I currently have 2 things I'm trying to figure out.
When I start up UM, my icons move to Monitor #2, I don't want them there, I want them to stay on Monitor #1, how do I get them to stay there?
Wallpaper, when starting my PC and loading UM, my wallpaper is on both monitors, but when I go into UM and apply the saved layout it then makes the changes, is this how it's suppose to work of am I missing something?

1) Looks like there's something going wrong with UltraMon's icon positioning feature. To manually save the current position of the desktop icons, choose Options from the UltraMon menu and click Save Now. You can also disable the feature by unchecking the Enabled box under 'Desktop Icon Positioning'
2) How did you set up your wallpaper? Image stretched across all monitors, or different image for each monitor?
After you have configured your wallpaper and applied it by clicking OK, you should get exactly this wallpaper whenever you restart your system

It seems that just about everyday something new and different happens.
Icons: I've saved the position several times and for whatever strange reason, they still sit on monitor 2 on initial boot, and till I disable/enable.
Wallpaper: I have a different one for each monitor, currently, when booting, having disabled m2, the wallpaper for the second monitor is displayed on m1, and is only changed when m2 is enabled.
As a side note, when UM is up and running is does quite well and I like what I can do. These little problems are just annoyances that are usually quickly resolved, and I hope they are helping you in making UM just a little bit better.

Icons: please post your desktop configuration, both with monitor 2 enabled and disabled. To do this, choose About from the UltraMon menu and copy the system information.
Icon positions are stored relative to the top-left corner of the desktop, this can cause problems when icons are restored and the desktop configuration is different from when the icon positions were saved.
Wallpaper: this is a limitation in the current version of UltraMon, the wallpaper is not adapted dynamically if you change the desktop configuration. The wallpaper is only guaranteed to display correctly if the desktop configuration (number of enabled monitors, position, resolution) is the same as when the wallpaper was last saved.

No time has been set yet for fixing the issues mentioned above. If possible I'll fix them before 2.0 final, but can't guarantee it.
