I have a laptop and have started using the internal monitor as my primary display and an external monitor as my secondary display (i.e., using the "extended desktop" option under Windows XP Desktop => Properties => Settings). I have noticed that most, but not all, of the MATRIXx 7.16 windows work normally on the second display. However, at least a couple of windows do not function normally. First, the Connection Editor window will appear in the secondary window if the Main drawing window is in that window when you try to add a connection. However, mouse clicks are not recognized to add connections until the Connection Editor Window is moved back to the primary display. Similarly, the Interactive Animation Palette window is also inactive in the secondary display. Again, it has to be moved to the primary display before any icons can be dragged and dropped into the Main drawing window (although the Main drawing window itself can stay on the secondary display). Interestingly, the Main Palette Browser window works normally on either display.

MATRIXx

It might be good to have something about this in the Knowledgebase.
