Hi Ken!

Reserving screen space was never implemented for monitors other than the primary. This was, IIRC, because appbars at one point did not support multi-monitors.

Given yours and PC Pete's post on the Beta Forums, I guess I need to revise multi-monitor support soon.

I was gonna mention some multi-monitor stuff but never got around
to it.
Although I have Xtreme working fine on the primary monitor
I can't for the life of me setup a hotspot on the secondary for
NextSTART. Closest I got was setting it for bump top screen edge
which seems to span across both monitors.
Right screen edge (of the secondary) doesn't work and I can't
select an area on its desktop either.
The crosshairs appear on the primary but if I move the mouse to
the secondary I get a regular mouse cursor.

However, if I move the preferences window to the secondary and
select an area again I then get the crosshairs and can select an area
but it still didn't wo....
Er um uh. Hmm, whatya know, it works.
:?

Heh, I know I tried and tried before and NS wouldn't pop up on the
secondary monitor. :oops:

Guess I could just "nevermind" this but I don't post enough. :-)
