Monitor comes back on and apps stay on that monitor.

Open ChrisMayhew opened this issue 9 years ago • 10 comments

Hello

This app is just what I am looking for! A way to disable a monitor without having to pull the cable out of the back so I can use my PC on that monitor.. However it's not quite working :(

Anyway when I disable my 2nd monitor it goes black and then comes back on showing the background and the Mac top bar but you cannot move the mouse onto that screen and any open applications are also stuck on that screen but are not selectable. Is this a bug or intended? I was hoping it would disable the monitor and then move all active apps onto the main screen.

Regards, Chris

Yes it is a Bug. Which version are you using? Which Mac OS Version are you using?

I have no 10.10.1 available atm. But will check this out. Maybe you could attach the systemlog? You can find it in the Console App.

Okay :)

This is all the log entries that showed up when I disabled and enabled the monitor in question, The site wouldn't let me upload the file.
