Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Bug with two monitors, different resolutions

I'm running Vista x64 with two monitors - one @ 1920x1200 resolution, the other at 1680x1050.

If I open an application (e.g. notepad) on my larger monitor then right click on the title bar of the notepad window and select "Move to Other Monitor" then instead of moving the window as expected, it moves the left corner of the first monitor (1920x1200 resolution) at 0,0 and resizes the window to 1680x1050.

I also defined a hotkey in ultramon to move the window with focus to the next monitor -- when I select it, nothing happens.

I'm running Ultramon v2.7.1.0. Here is the system info from the about box

2 monitors
Current desktop: 3600x1200 (0,0 - 3600,1200)

Monitor 1 - Dell E248WFP(Digital) (primary):
Settings: 1920x1200, 32-bit color, 60 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: 0,0 - 1920,1200. Workspace: 0,0 - 1920,1170
Video card: ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT
Device: \\.\DISPLAY1\Monitor0

Monitor 2 - Generic PnP Monitor:
Settings: 1680x1050, 32-bit color, 60 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: 1920,150 - 3600,1200. Workspace: 1920,150 - 3600,1170

One other observation.

If I have a window on the monitor with the lower resolution, then hit my hotkey to move the window to the monitor with the higher resolution - this works.

But not the inverse - move window from high res monitor to lower res monitor.

Unfortunately I don't know what might cause this, but I can't reproduce this issue.

I tested with UltraMon 3.0.3 on 64-bit Vista SP1, the primary was running at 1280x1024, the secondary at 1024x768. Resize mode under UltraMon Options > General was set to proportional.
