We had a major storm through here recently and we suffered damage to the house roof and ceilings. I just received the quote to repair. I’m hoping that a small fraction of the 80,000 odd people that download SDIO and/or Desktop Info every month won’t mind chipping in a few dollars to help out.

I'm running 3 monitors on my desktop. Always had DTI on the left most monitor #3. Just upgraded my main monitor #2. But now DTI is loading on monitor #1. I got the current version 4/6/25 of DTI
[ #3 ] [ #2 ] [ #1 ]
I just added the line monitor-mode=0 after the I got the new monitor trying to move DTI. Is the easy fix to just rearange my monitor numbers in Win10?
[options]
# size and position
monitor-mode=0
monitor-num=3
top=20
right=25
width=400
auto-scale=0
nav=0
did changing the monitor change the display arrangement in Windows?
also, numbering is the thing here. 0 is the primary monitor, 1 is the second monitor, 2 is the third monitor. If you specified monitor-num=3 then it would find no fourth monitor so it goes back to the primary monitor. See page 12.
I was able to test on a 3 monitor system today and can see the issue. The display code may have changed subtly. Add display-change=1 to the [options].
Hrm, there's more to this. Apparently the list of monitors don't exactly align with Window's list of monitors. The internal list is not being refreshed correctly after a hardware change.
