$ NOTE: Windows system logon and logoff
messages cannot be repositioned and will always
appear split across monitors unless the Boot to
single monitor control is enabled (see below).
Window control:
ú Single monitor windows—When this box is
checked, windows are sized no larger than a
single monitor. Windows that are placed on
monitor splits are automatically relocated to the
monitor on which most of the window appears.
ú Max button management—Allows you to control
the behavior of the Windows Maximize button.
In a typical Windows environment, clicking the
Maximize button causes a window to size itself
to the full desktop.
$ NOTE: Clicking the Appian icon on the application
title bar makes the active window fill the current
monitor, regardless of this setting.
− Max to window corners causes windows to
maximize to the monitor(s) that contains the
window’s upper left and lower right corners.
− Max to full desktop causes windows to
maximize to the entire monitor array.
− Max to current monitor causes windows to
maximize to the monitor that contains the
greatest portion of the window.
ú Max child windows—Keeps windows generated
by parent applications from splitting across
monitors (A child window is a window residing
within a parent application window.). The ability
to keep child windows on a single monitor when
maximized is extremely useful for editing multiple
documents side by side in a parent application.
