I've tested this with negative values, and they line right up with what windows xp says when you hover over the non primary monitors on the settings table in display properties.Originally posted by Rupp View Post
Right click the desktop and select properties.
settings tab.
Hover over the extended monitors it will say something like "Secondary Display (-704,1048)"Joe (zimmer62)

Did you wait long enough? The Client always starts at 0,0 position, then every minute (or so) it updates its position to the defined values. The problem I have with this is that if you want to move the screen around the monitor manually it'll always jump back to the defined position. Also, the top-most screen always takes the position, so if your top-most screen is a different size from your main screen the whole client repositions, potentially moving the main screen off the window.MikeComment

Gordon,
I personally only used the feature with the Mimo monitor connected via USB on an XP client and a couple of HSTouch client versions back.
Trying it now on my desktop (multiple LCDs) and its staying in the top left corner when I change the position.
I was able to get it to work by moving the TS client window across my desktop, exiting and restarting it. I have the "Hide Mouse Pointer" not checked and the "Add Titlebar to screens" checked. I can move my TS client across multiple LCDs though.
If I drag it to a position and watch it a bit it goes to the position set in the client DlgPosition tab.
Just tried it with about 2000 plus pixels to the left and it landed on my right LCD.
To get it to go back to the upper left hand side of the left LCD; I unchecked the box and had to shut down the client and restart it. It didn't go on its own though.- Pete
