Make RDi main product reopen on monitor it was shut down on when restarted

I have needs to have several different compile environments and I do not use multiple connections because I have to use tools in RDi that do not honor those connections properly.

So, I often set up the library list for the environment I want and I have another setup to attempt to return it to the original environment. This works well for most of the time.

However, there are times when restarting is the best solution. One of those cases happens to be the debugger. It, on quite a few occations, has forgotten that it is supposed to pick up an active program.

Restarting RDi seems to be the only way to make it wake back up.

However, when RDi is restarted it opens up on the main monitor (my laptop monitor) when I want it on the larger monitor I have.

When I exit and restart RDi from a Windows short cut the product seems to know where it left off and reopens on the monitor it exited.


Use Case:

Open RDi on the monitor that is not the primary monitor. If it's not on the secondary monitor, move it there.

Restart RDi from the File menu or update a plugin.

RDi should appear on the wrong monitor.

    Although the theme of this request is consistent with our business strategy, it is not committed to the release that is currently under development.
