RE: draging tabletpc input panel to a second display

I have a tablet running business. My understanding is that the panel would
only be displayed on the screen with input ability and you wouldn't want to
write on a external LCD so there would be no reason to bring it to another
screen. Perhaps I misunderstood, but I can't see a need to move it.

RE: draging tabletpc input panel to a second display

See it will only display the panel on my primary monitor wich isnt a touch
screen just a 22 inch lcd. It will not let me drag it to the secondary
monitor wich is a 7 inch touch screen. So basically the input panel cant be
used where needed. If i se the 7 inch lcd up as the primary monitor the panel
appears on it, but im obviously not going to use a 7 inch screen as my
primary.

You could. You can customize the secondary monitor so it looks practically
just like a Primary. You can move the taskbar, desktop icons, etc. all to the
secondary and go from there. You can also set the resolutions up the way you
want, etc.

Good Luck

I also have this problem. My tablet is the secondary with no taskbar etc and
my primary a big LCD. THe input panel won't go onto the tablet monitor.

Re: draging tabletpc input panel to a second display

My experience with this is that the tip is not "draggable"

Your question prompted me to experiment, and, while I didn't find an
answer to the "tip" question, I did discover that...

....the taskbar _can_ be dragged to the aux window!

This is going to meet a few needs that I have had in the docked mode and
I'm using a ksu to run my primary desktop.

if it's just keyboard input you need, RUN/OSK should meet the need as
it's draggable.
