With an Nvidia dual-head display, I have some inconvenient experiences with WindowMaker. Most prominently, new windows that are created in the center of the display are split between the two monitors. I wish Window Maker could somehow know that I have 2 monitors and stop starting programs in a way that straddles the 2 monitors. Have you ever wished for that functionality? I'm using the Nvidia Twinview configuration, so the 2 1280x1024 monitors are seen as one single monitor 2560x1024. Window Maker scales the background images all the way across both monitors. pj -- Paul E.
