[FEATURE REQUEST] - Support for Multi-Monitor

Open Macaddict42 opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

I frequently run PoE on my 2nd or 3rd monitor while I work or do other things on my primary monitor. When I do this, MercuryTrade only ever displays the overlay on my primary monitor.

I would like MercuryTrade to automatically switch to whatever monitor Path of Exile is being displayed on by getting the window handle and checking the window bounds.

Is there a reason why did you close this feature request?

After looking into this problem I do know that it's impossible to make it in a good way. It's practically impossible to support multiple resolutions with some kind of automatic change. MT is not a one window application.

I think that the best solution for this problem will be option to choose a profile so you will be able to run MT and change profile which includes all settings, positions of windows etc.

Are you still planning on implementing this? It seems like you can require that multi-monitor only works if all monitor resolutions are the same. Then it's just a matter of docking the windows relative to the screen poe is running on.

Yea, im still planning on solving that problem but i'm not sure about best solution yet. Automatic change is not a solution here because you won't be able to put your notifications at other monitor.
