From two monitors to one

Hey, guys,

I hope you can help. I used to have an external larger monitor that I had my laptop plugged in to, and I used the space on my external monitor screen to display Hexagon on. Even though I no longer have the external monitor plugged in, Hexagon still insists on going over to the space where the external monitor used to be.

My DAZ Studio did make the adjustment from the two monitors down to only the one.

How do I get my access back to Hexagon?

    The problem is that Windows "remembers" which screen the program was last used on (well, to be even more precise, which screen you last used it as "not maximized")

    If you're using windows 7 or more recent, open Hex then while the program is the current active window try using "Windows+Shift+Right or left arrow" (switch monitor where the program is), or "Windows + right arrow" multiple times (snap to right side of the screen, it cycles between monitors. Windows + left arrow would work too).

    Once you've got it back on your main display, "restore" the window so that it's not maximized, and close the program. Next time you open Hex it should be on the main monitor.

    If you're on older windows try using the standard windows menu to restore the window so it can be moved, then select "Move" and use the arrow keys to move the window back to your main monitor.
