    How can I drag a screen display onto an adjoining satellite monitor?

    Hi Stewart,

    In order for us to assist you dragging a screen to your satellite monitor, you can follow these steps:

    • Move the cursor off each of the four screen edges to see if one of them works.
    • If it does, position the monitors in the Display > Screen Resolution window
      to match the physical placement of the monitors.
    In the event that the previous steps failed to work, you can try these:

    • In the display settings just swap the
      Display1 and Display2 Monitors.
    • Drag the Monitor1 display icon and
      drop it on Monitor2 display icon, this would give you the correct alignment of screens.

    Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have further inquiries.

  4. Cant drag screen / use keyboard shortcuts to move between displays

    HELP - How to Get On-Screen Keyboard to Open on Active Display??

    How in the blazes can I get the on-screen keyboard to open on the display I'm actually using??? I have a Wacom Cintiq 22HD display and when I click the shortcut to open the on-screen keyboard, it opens up on a monitor clear across the room.

    Some key notes here:

    • I need the on-screen keyboard because the Cintiq is too big to use with a keyboard.
    • No, I don't want the Cintiq to be the primary display, so please don't suggest that.
    • I can't even see the other displays while using the Cintiq.

    Please please please tell me what I'm missing. Yesterday the on-screen keyboard was opening on the Cintiq display, and today it's not and it's gonna make me crazy.
