Multi-screen display - how to force primary display

I have a three screen system as shown below.

When opening v8i, Microstation's Primary application window appears on Display 1 and the Secondary application window appears on Display 2. I prefer the second window to be on the right of my first so I drag and maximize it to Display 3. After doing a Save Settings, and re-opening, Microstation still returns to the Primary = Display 1 and Secondary = Display 2. How do I force Secondary to Display 2 every time I open Microstation?

In CONNECT, the situation is even worse - Primary opens on Display 2, and Secondary opens on Display 1.

Again, I want Primary on Display 1 and Secondary on Display 3 for both v8i and CONNECT.

Is there anything I can do to achieve this, or do I have to keep dragging Microstation windows around before I start to work?

v8i: 08.11.09.916

CONNECT: 10.14.00.109

Windows 10: 10.0.18363

  • you want quick and dirty fix ?

    Swap your cables around... ( when only had 2 monitors this was easiest way)

    with 3 monitors I had similar problem and IT guy disconnected all the cables and only  plugged them back in one at a time and restarted each time then it worked the same for windows and all programs
