Hi,
I have a problem with apps that freeze in various dexpot scenarios:
Say I have App1 on screen1 and I switch to screen2... if a dialog pops up from that instance of App1 on screen2, then I have great difficulty interacting with that new dialog, and end up dragging both original window and dialog between screens trying to get them in sync, but usually, even if I clear out the new dialog, the original window on screen1 will still be frozen. Its as though dexpot is stopping App1 from finding out that I cleared its dialog.
This happens regularly with Excel and even windows explorer itself!
Another (more vague) variation on this is that if (for example) I open Excel windows on both screen1 and screen2, and...I think launch a new xls file that ends up going to the Excel instance on screen1 while I'm on screen2, dexpot gets confused about which its on, and I also end up having to jump and drag around between screens, to get Dexpot back inline again.
I'd say there MUST be a forum thread about this already, but so far I've not found it. Plz advise.
I'm running it on Win7/64.
Thanks, Stu.
