Moving game to another screen?

[Coral]

I am running Win10 and SH5. My top monitor is my main monitor, but I would prefer to play the game on my bottom secondary monitor. Even though I am running the game in windows mode, I cannot seem to move the game to my secondary monitor. Is there any way to do so?

The game only understands one monitor, so it will go to your Primary (1) monitor. You could "swap" them in the Windows panel, but the game might still go to that "primary" display, whether it's identified as #1 or #2...

That is what happened. Even though I switched monitor numbers in Windows, the game still came up on the top monitor. In another old game, the shfit+win key and arrow key enabled the game to move to another monitor. No joy here though.

You will have to shut-down the system, including the monitors, and physically move the cables then. Once you have #2 in the #1 connection, and vice versa, re-boot into Windows and try the game again. It should now display on your bottom screen. Then go into the settings, and swap the ID around again, such that your Windows main screen is on the monitor you want. You will still have apps that follow the "hard-wired" cabling instead of Windows, but it might work for what you have... That's the way I solved my problem on my recently deceased system (RIP), but I did have some apps that just could not make up their minds as to which screen to display on after that... :roll:
