I have 4 monitors. I would like to have dialogue boxes (pop-up boxes for logging in , printing, etc) pop up on my primary monitor, which is monitor 3, which is where I primarily work. The boxes also pop-up on monitor 2 for some reason. Is there a way to have them always pop up on the primary monitor?

My config:
4 monitors
Current desktop: 3072x1536 (-1024,-344 - 2048,1192)

Monitor 1 - Plug and Play Monitor:
Settings: 1024x768, 32-bit color, 60 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: -1024,424 - 0,1192. Workspace: -1024,424 - 0,1158
Video card: Matrox Millennium G550
Device: \\.\DISPLAY1\Monitor1

Monitor 2 - SyncMaster 153T:
Settings: 1024x768, 32-bit color, 70 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: -1024,-344 - 0,424. Workspace: -1024,-344 - 0,390
Video card: Matrox G400/G450
Device: \\.\DISPLAY2\Monitor1

Monitor 3 - Dell M990 (primary):
Settings: 1024x768, 32-bit color, 75 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: 0,0 - 1024,768. Workspace: 0,0 - 1024,734
Video card: Matrox Millennium G550
Device: \\.\DISPLAY3\Monitor0

Monitor 4 - Dell P991:
Settings: 1024x768, 32-bit color, 85 Hz refresh rate
Coordinates: 1024,0 - 2048,768. Workspace: 1024,0 - 2048,734
Video card: Matrox G400/G450

UltraMon currently can't do this, support for this will be considered for UltraMon 3.

Any idea why the pop ups always go to monitor 2 vs some other monitor?

Thanks,
Steve

Unfortunately I don't know why this would happen, seems odd.

Usually the problem is that the dialogs always come up on the primary monitor, even if the application is on a secondary monitor.
