Digital Tigers SideCar MMS Series Combining the “Save/Restore” and “Open program windows” options

Combining the “Save/Restore” and “Open program windows” options

The two preceding options may be combined, but users should note that their actions when combined may produce unexpected results. You can test these effects using a simple program such as Windows Notepad. When both of the preceding options are selected, the following scenarios illustrate the resulting behavior:

ƒProgram is opened in default display, then closed. Program will reopen exactly where it was used before.

ƒProgram is opened in default display, then moved to a different display. Program will reopen in original default display. (“Open program windows in display…” takes priority.)

ƒProgram is opened in default display, then stretched across the seam between two or more displays, without touching the edge of the screen. Program will reopen in the same positioning. (“Save/Restore window positions” takes priority.)

Maximize windows across all displays

This helpful option enables you to easily maximize applications across all available displays (including the notebook LCD display, if active).

Clicking this checkbox simply enables this feature as an option. To use the feature, hold down the CTRL key just before maximizing a window. The application will immediately fill the entire Windows desktop.

(To maximize a window, click the maximize icon at the top-right of Windows applications.)

Use MaxVIEW (DualHead only)
