    |
|
I just bought a new monitor to be able to work off of a laptop with powercadd. For some reason, Powercadd will only allow the window to be the size of the laptops screen, but no bigger. The desktop screen is obviously much larger than the laptop.
Does anyone know how to create a infinite window size?
Thank you! |

This same thing happens with me when I use Word, and I plug the second monitor in after the program is already running.
With the second monitor plugged in, simply restart the application and it fixes it for me. |

I use and external monitor with the internal one as an extended desktop. I put many tool pallets on the laptop display, and mostly work on the monitor. I don't seem to have that window size limit, at least if PC is launched after the monitor is plugged in.
Derek Dubout's PowerCADD preference Utility is key to going back and forth from the dual monitor set up on the desktop to the internal display alone on the road.

| on launch, powercadd checks to see how big your monitor is. if you change your monitor settings or add one after you've started powercadd, it ignores the extra pixels. just another example... |
