Finally this morning when rebooting my machine Bumptop advised me there was an update to the version I was running. Once install I knew something had changed since it was on a screen other than my primary display. Yippee – – – finally its now multi screen aware and using the “next screen” button you can move it from display to display !!!!!! (now to see if they ever achieve multi desktop display)
