    Hi Frits,

    I don’t know if this is a bug, but when I pull the Podium main window on my second monitor and try to maximize the window, Podium maximizes at the top but not at the bottom. I don’t know how to explain it correctly, so I hope you understand my description šŸ™‚

    For whatever reason, Podium decides to maximize to the resolution of my main monitor, and not the resolution of my 2nd one.

    Any idea what causes this?

    What are the two resolutions you use for your monitors?

    Is the size of the missing part at the bottom equal to the Windows task bar on your main monitor?

    main monitor: 1280 x 800

    2nd monitor: 1280 x 1024

    The missing part on the 2nd monitor is exactly the difference between 1024 and 800

    Which Windows version are you using?

    Do you have the ‘extend desktop on this monitor’ option set for the secondary monitor?

    The bug was easy to find, but the fix proved to be more complicated. I had to change the method I use to set the borderless fullscreen position. Windows(tm) was doing some voodoo with the coordinates I gave it, depending on various factors such as the taskbar position. If you e.g. move your taskbar to your secondary monitor, the window is maximized properly.

    Fixed in release 1.68.
