Default Re: MTH v2.007 - Active window location

[ QUOTE ]
I can't seem to find the right combo of checkmarks for the following:
Monitor two to have the windows except when active and to have the location "sticky" i.e when inactive it goes back to the same place it came from. The active window to go to monitor one and return to monitor two after being acted upon.

I have inactive area check marks for all quadrants of Monitor 2 and no quadrants of monitor 1.
I have checked "Move active window"
I have unchecked "Keep active table in place, until moved"
The active window location is "top left" "monitor 1"

However, the active table is moved to monitor one but never moved back to monitor two after being acted upon. They just pile up in the corner of monitor one. What am I missing?

Make sure you have all checkmarks checked on monitor two, and none on monitor one (as you say you have [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]).

If you're using auto arrange, the tables should be arranged at monitor two in each corner. Please note that when using auto arrange, you cannot be guaranteed that a table will be put back into the same quadrant as it came from, MTH will simply try to find the most optimal spot, based on it's own algorithm.

If you want to be sure that tables are put back to where they came from, uncheck the auto arrange checkmark. The place the tables where you wan't them and start MTH. They should now be moved to and from the active location while retaining their old inactive location.

I haven't experienced any pileup of tables in the active quadrant, does this always happen?
