Heyas

Not sure if it's your fault or microsofts (c:

I've got duel monitors, with mirc in the second one...

when I right click on a channel or query or dcc in the window bar, it's fine.

But if I go and right click on the nick list, or the channel window it's self (in the center) the popup shows at the edge of my first monitor...

it's not disfuctional, and I wouldn't give it the highest priority, but it is kinda annoying

It's neither mIRC's fault, nor Microsoft's, it's yours. alt+o | display | options | "enable dual monitor support"

That must be checked.

personally, i think that should be intergrated. Why would you need it off, or have reason to. Single monitors are uneffected (afaik) so, whats the matter with is being on always? grin

I think single monitors may be effected if your mouse is too close to the edge of the screen, or part of the window is off the screen... the popup may appear on the 'other screen' that doesn't exist. I don't know for sure as I don't have 2 monitors to test on.

you completly voided your last statement

I think single monitors...
--Make statement about single monitor hypothesis

...may be effected if your mouse is too close to the edge of the screen, or part of the window is off the screen... the popup may appear on the 'other screen' that doesn't exist. I don't know for sure as I don't have 2 monitors to test on.
--Now your talking about double monitors?

Your trying to make a statement about a single-monitor support, then refer to 2x monitors?

If you leave duel monitor support on with only one screen, you have a phantom "other monitor". I meant what I said.

i enable duel monitor (one monitor) right click on the nickmost ont he rightmost portion of the screen, and the popup appears on this monitor. The support is there, no change as far as single monitor support (from what i see). Maybe Khaled can clue us in on why its not a default feature? Pros/cons?
