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.
$ NOTE: The Appian application title bar icon
changes from a single square to two smaller
squares when a window is in an Appian maximized
state. Clicking the icon again restores the active
window to its default state as a single square.
General:
ú Application position memory—Check this box
to “remember” the size and location of application
windows when they are closed and reapply those
settings when the application is reopened.
ú Automatically align monitors—Under Windows,
you can manually define monitor placement from
the Settings dialog in the Display Properties
dialog box. When this box is checked, HydraVision
will override user-defined monitor placement if the
monitors are not evenly aligned.
$ NOTE: This control will work only if all monitors
are running at the same resolution and your
desktop is configured as a rectangle (monitors
side by side).
ú Boot to single monitor—Check this box to boot
your system in single monitor mode. This prevents
system messages and the Windows splash screen
from splitting across monitors during boot-up. The
display will switch to multiple monitor mode after
you log on and the Appian Desktop Manager
loads.
