Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Custom Window Settings delayed several seconds

Hello,

I'm using UltraMon with Citrix to make sure an application always opens in the top-left corner of the screen. This is what happens:

1 - I launch the application via shortcut the UltraMon shortcut.

2 - The application's security app starts and asks for my username and password

3 - I enter my username and password and hit enter.

4 - The app's main window appears in the location I closed it at last time.

5 - After 8-10 seconds, the main window is moved to the coordinates I specified in UltraMon.

Why is there a delay before moving the window and is there any way to fix it?

Thanks!
Kelly

Just a couple notes:

1 - This happens whether I am using Citrix, Terminal Services, or logged into the Server's console connection.

2 - Tried restarting after install - didn't help.

There's probably no fix for this, but if you have a download link for the application I'll give it a try on my system.

Most likely what happens is that UltraMon isn't sure if this is the main application window instead of a splash screen, and so waits a bit to see if another window gets created. If that's not the case, it will then move the window.

The application is part of the Cerner Millennium packaged (www.cerner.com) and isn't freely available. I figured it had something to do with the security portion - which is a separate application. I'll keep fiddling with it and let you know if I find a workaround.

One thing you could try is to set the Show option to Last Used Position, this works differently from the other options.
