Ah.. lots of contributions to this issue for 4 years it looks like. I still am
having an issue in November 2009.
-Win 7 ultimate 64bit
-Running 2 video cards with two outputs each.
- three monitors attached like this:
|------|
Primary | |
Desktop | 3 | Numbers represent "Identify" output
\ |------|
|======||------|
| || |
| 2 || 1 |
|------||------|
-Install current top release of Wireshark 32 or 64 bit.
Now, been running this computer Vista for 2 years and Win 7 for several months
Only Wireshark has a problem with it, all other apps install and pop up every
load on the primary desktop which is 24 inch 1900 x 1200 monitor #2 and are
usable.
Wireshark tries to locate itself off screen in the area I have marked with
"====". There is now way to access any control or move the app onscreen.
If I relocate all screens like this "X" "X" "X" then it does come up on screen
2 stuck tightly in the upper left corner. By messing with it you can eventually
get it to work.
This seems to be incorrect behavior lasting several years, no? I would like to
ask why has this not been corrected? -Not a challenge to anyone but if no one
can do it, or wants to, can I do it and submit the change to help others down
the road? Who is in charge of this area? I am a programmmer with about 30 years
experiance in all areas from assembly (that's all I had before C and Basic were
invented) to today's Java and C#. Plenty of Win32 experiance.
Load should ask windows where the primary desktop is and place itself in the
center, at least the first time it loads. The "move" functionality available by
right clicking on the tool bar app icon should allow user to drag the app from
any monitor, visible or not to the desktop and that does not function. It
should not matter where various monitors are located in referance to one
another, other apps negotiate this just fine.
Thanks for your response in advance... Dennis from Camarillo CA
