Multimonitor & Multidesktops?

[Marc]

Hi guys!

Thanks for such an awesome bit of freeware. I just love being able to extend my desktop space!

Just one quick request (and I notice that it's been raised before many times). If there was any way you were thinking of/could support multi-monitors, that would make this program just complete! I use a laptop with a pretty pathetic screen (15") but attach it to my 22" when at my desk. If there was some way to have a two desktop setup that would display one on the laptop screen - so I could play music etc. - and another with work that would be awesome. I know it's been raised many times before but thought I'd throw another 2 cents into the cause

Thanks again for this great tool.

This probably is quite a chunk of work but I agree it would push this product into the realms of incredible!

I wouldn't want to sound ungrateful for all the hard work that's already going into the development of dexpot but I wouldn't mind betting that quite a chunk of users are on a multi monitor setup

Yes this program - despite all its various bugs- seriously kicks butt.
For thoese of you who are using monitors of the same side... what I have done is combine this soft with Gridmove.. and span monitors.. Works great!!

A multi-desk (per monitor) configuration would definitely put Dexpot over the top. Please consider this for future improvement.

Yep. I also missed this feature (funcionality is not so much to full handle multiple monitors, but more to assign one virtual desktop to one monitor)

Indeed such a feature would make dexpot THE killer app

Ok.

I would love this functionality as well, and this is one of the "Holy Grails" of the VDM world.
But before we all start ganging up on this concept (along with Patrick and Sebastian), Please also observe the following Posts.

I am starting to believe that there is a good reason that this hurdle has never been overcome in more than 20 years, and unfortunately may not be a do-able thing.

I understand the difficulty with a different desktop on each monitor; resolution changes, moving the windows around, etc.

What I'd quite like would be something different with multiple monitors; the ability to make one monitor unaffected by the switch. As in have multiple desktops only on one monitor; whatever's on the other screen stays there.

will be part of version 1.6.

Oh that's fantastic.

I've looked around, but I can't see anything clarifying; is it possible for just anyone to become a beta tester, or is it restricted?
