Michael Upton Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I have two screens. My main screen is my laptop runningWindows 10. I use Adobe Bridge as my photo manager and it is set to open a photo for editing in Affinity. Affinity photo displays correctly when launched from Adobe Bridge. However, when I try and launch Affinity Photo directly it fails to display correctly on my larger secondary monitor - it starts to launch and then immediately switches to an incomplete welcome screen with no means of minimising or closing (not visible). I have to close the the program from the task bar on my laptop. The only way I can launch Affinity Photo to display correctly on my secondary larger monitor is to launch it on my laptop - minimise it and then drag it to the larger monitor and then maximise it. Any ideas? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Chris B Posted March 25, 2021 Staff Share Posted March 25, 2021 Hi Miachael, Windows decides where/how to launch the app and it is norotious at handing diferent scaling options i.e. when you have a laptop (typically a smaller screen/res) and a monitor (typically a higher res/bigger screen). I'm not sure we could do anything about this to be honest. Is the external monitor always connected and on? Perhaps this is also causing a problem. Windows should remember the last screen the app was closed on though. I wouldn't mind seeing a screenshot if you could take one though. I have a laptop with a 4k panel and a separate 4k monitor and this is fine for me. I don't however have Adobe Bridge but it sounds like that bit is working fine anyway.
