Thanks Phoon. I'm currently running 5.1.0 Beta 5.

 

I love this program!!

I must say that Stardock really should make an equivalent of DisplayFusion. They could probably improve on it a little. At least the part that controls the start menu.

 

I have only one real problem with DF. The secondary start menus are borked, if you're running WindowBlinds.

What is the problem with the start menus?

The secondaries don't paint well. If the mouse stays long enough......several seconds, it'll paint. I submitted a video of it to Binary Fortress. You want video?
