maximising screens

April 20th, 2006, 11:07 am

hi all, I have a rather trivial question which I hope one might have the answer to. I work on 3 monitors and when I double click on any software in order to maximise it, the whole application spreads itself across the screens. I noticed that my BB screens though tend to maximise themselves properly (ie they maximise in one screen) would you know if there is a way I could do this with the rest of the applications such as XL etc.RegardsCT

I have seen this in the past, and it is mainly down to the settings for the gfx card driver, and any software that the card vendor supplies - eg, ATI has hyrdavision, which has facilities to control exactly what the maximise function does.
