The V10 change documentation indicates that "If BookCAT is run on secondary monitor, all windows you open now appear on this monitor. In addition, if BookCAT was closed when placed on secondary monitor, it will appear on this monitor the next time you start it."

I am finding that this is not what is happening. If I run BCat on screen 2, and I click Book - Download from Internet, the updating dll popup appears on the second screen, but the download screen appears on monitor 1.

Editing any table, the table appears on screen 1, but when the required item is selected, the edit screen appears correctly on monitor 2.

View an image from the edit screen puts the image on monitor 1 not 2

There are many more like this, even Help - Whats New puts the whats new on monitor 1.

Also, after closing, a restart of BCat started on monitor 1 not 2.

I am using MultiMon, on a WinXP SP3 system. Other programs that I use open screens on the correct monitor and restart from the correct monitor so I don't think it is MultiMon, but I could be wrong.

The obvious fix is to run BCat on screen 1 and the other stuff on 2, but I would like to find out what is going on.

The help window is part of windows, and BookCAT has no control over where this is opened.


Works fine here (on Windows 7 64 bit). What is the advantage of using MultiMon? You could try disabling MultiMon, and see if that makes a difference.
