Ecostruxure Machine Expert HVAC with dual monitors
Maybe somebody has figured out how to solve this... So, I am used to working at the office with dual monitors. That means that while I am developing a project, I typically have the project on my laptop´s main screen, and I move the simulator to the attached secondary screen so that it is easier to work. Whenever I remember it, I move all the windows on the secondary screen to the main screen before detaching the HDMI cable, but this does not always happen.
If this is the case, when I start working at either a customer´s location or maybe at home, the simulator´s screen is missing because strangely enough, Windows somehow still thinks this screen is available. I have found a way to move the simulator´s control screen to the main screen because there are many people asking the same question on internet, however neither HMI window or I/O window show.
In the past (Windows 7 and 10) restarting the laptop worked (or at least sometimes worked). That does not seem to be the case with Windows 11. Obviously restarting the program does not work either.
