MySQL Administrator - Can't see with Remote Desktop session connecting to Multiple Monitor Workstation
I have a Vista workstation at work with 3 monitors. At home I have a laptop running XP. I commonly remote desktop into work and some of my programs will be running and visible in the task bar (e.g. Outlook, MySQL Administrator, etc...) but the actual window of the program will still be on my left or right monitor at work. So at home, it is not visible.
With a program like Outlook, it is an easy fix.
- Right Click the program in the task bar.
- Select Move.
- Use the left or right arrow key to move the running program so that it is visible in the remote desktop session.
With MySQL 5 Administrator or Query Browser, there is a different approach needed. The reason being, when you right click the program in the task bar, the only choices are minimize, restore and close. Instead:
- Left click the program in the task bar.
- Do a Alt+Space and a menu will appear on the left or right side of the remote session.
- The menu should have "Move" on it. If not use the left/right arrows to change the menu.
- Select "Move".
- Use the left/right arrows to move the window into the remote desktop session.
