I'm using twinview and would like to set which monitor a application starts in. For example I want blender to start on crt1-1 every time. How do I configure this?

Thanks

Oy - unless the program has a feature that "remembers" where you want it started - I think you may be sool. I've been running duallies for years now, and in linux for the past 2.

I don't claim to know everything, or even a lot, but that kind of program environment recognition, is, in my experience, just not there. I do have programs that remember where they were when I last closed them - and they go back there. And I have a couple that remember where they were when I told them to remember it. But otherwise? I haven't seen anything.

I'll be interested in what you find out.
