Hi,
I am using Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1. I have two monitors. When I work with program on second monitor many times opened dialog (like File | Open) opens on primary monitor. Is there a way to force applications to open any dialogs on the current monitor instead? Like when I use secondary monitor all dialogs from program displayed on secondary monitor should be opened on secondary monitor. It is time consuming to move mouse between monitors.
Thanks
 
I have 2 monitors in Win 7 also, and this is not my experience at all. Which program's open file dialog behaves this way? Maybe that application is not multi-monitor aware.
