    When dragging a window to another monitor it gets stuck midway and slams against a circular blue ping animation. I have to pull back and slam my mouse+dragged box against the edge like I'm smashing through a brick wall to move the window across. It only happens when dragging stuff and began happening after last big update. How do I turn this "feature," that I'm pretty sure no one has ever asked for, off?

    Heres a picture of a 'settings box' being dragged into the edge and hitting the circular ping effect that stops it.

    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.

    Dragging window to second monitor

    Hello- I have connected a VGA / Hdmi cable from my laptop to a second monitor. The second monitor does show my pc screen, however, even after extending the display, I am unable to drag a window from pc to 2nd monitor. I have disabled Snap. I have double
    clicked the title bar and then dragged to side of screen but it will not show at all on 2nd monitor.

    I appreciate any feedback.

    Thank you,

    Lisa
