Desktop Icons Problem

Post by Drex »

When I have Surround enabled with the taskbar on my centre screen,the desktop
icons should be on the screen where the taskbar is,but they all appear on my left
monitor instead.

Is there anyway of getting this to work properly ?

I like to use an app called "Fences" by Stardock software,

It allows you to setup containers for icons to sit in, which can be configured at a per resolution basis, so when switching between extended and spanned i can setup the containers to remain in the middle monitor.

hehe Fences.... you recomended that before Delphium.

Tried it out. Worked kinda fine.

But somewhen i stopped. not sure why. think something fucked up and all icons got deleted or such... can't remember anymore ^^

Well... who needs desktop icons? They're just here as reminders "Hei Look, its Hitman Absolution! Don't you want to play me now?" And then i press Start button and type "Hitman" and press enter! :doh:
We gonna send it to outa space!
