Hi!

I'm placing all my VSTi and FX on my second monitor with the autohide/open preference option. After saving and reloading a live set the edit plug-in panels are on hide! If I click on them to show the VSTi/Fx they get displayed on the first monitor (so it was no problem with only one monitor)! I have to open all the windows and place them again on the second monitor

(If I use Ctrl-P hide/open works, the plugin windows stay on the second monitor.)
This is kind of suboptimal

Any ideas to cure this behaviour?

Hi Markus,

this is a known bug of Live. We hope to fix that but we are not sure if the fix will make it into the next bug fix update (5.0.2).

- Do you use your second monitor on left side of your first monitor?
- Do you use Live on Windows?

regards,
Alex

Hi Alex!

Thanx for your response! I'm on Winxp SP1 and the second monitor is on the left side (it makes more sense for me, because of the browser, which is on the left). I pray it'll make it into 5.0.2

Hi again Markus,

ok, this should be fixed within the next beta (which will still need some days).
So just keep an eye on the forum to get informed when the next beta arrives.

regards,
Alex

It works in 5.0.2b4! Thanx. It would be nice, if the show status of the plugin panel would be saved too!
