PT on dual monitors on Windows
I've recently started using Pro Tools on two monitors on Windows, by dragging the parent windows across the two screens. But, when I close Pro Tools, the screen setup doesn't get saved. The whole windows moves a couple of inches to the right every time I open PT again. I've tried closing with Alt+F4, exiting via the menu, right clicking the top bar and exiting. Anyone seen this before?
Thanks! |

Re: PT on dual monitors on Windows
Hmm, its been fine here for many years and many versions(and a few different graphics cards) so I'm a bit confused. Maybe start by updating your graphics card driver(and maybe tell us what the graphics card is). Then drag the PT main window out to fill the 2 screens>place your MIX and EDIT windows as you like, hit alt-F4 and save. If that still doesn't come back up like you left it, look into Bob Nagy's Skooch utility(many on the DUC swear by it)

Re: PT on dual monitors on Windows
It works fine for me. It's been so many years that I don't remember that I did anything special to make it work. But at least you know it can be made to work. I'm on Win7 64-bit.

Re: PT on dual monitors on Windows
Thanks guys, tried again now with your exact steps, and the whole windows across two screens is still a couple of inches moved to the right when I open it again. I have a NVIDIA 970 which is updated, and Windows 10. I had it working a couple of years ago, though on a different computer.
