It appears that when using dualview with a laptop
fullscreen mode is always sent to the laptop screen,
regardless of which screen the program was running on.
(However, maximizing windows always leaves the window in
the same screen.) This is a major nuisance since one of
the major points of having an external monitor is to be
able to use it, rather than the small laptop screen, for
things like slide shows, editing, etc. But any time one
of these programs switches to fullscreen, the window moves
back to the (inferior) laptop screen. Ironcially, the
setup program for my external monitor uses full screeen
mode, so it does not run on the monitor it is supposed to
be setting up! Any suggestions on how to get fullscreen
on my second monitor? Is this a known bug/problem in XP?
P.S. Switching to clone mode is not really an acceptable
solution since it is quite inconvenient and the screen
settings must apply to both monitors.
Thanks!
