EXE Slide show on second monitor

Post by beiti »

In "Tools > Options > Fullscreen" there is an option called "Dual Monitor, Use second monitor".
This turned out to be very handy for picture presentations, because when you use a notebook computer and a digital projector, you can set up the slide show on the notebook display and then play the actual slide show on the second monitor (which is the projector in this case). This way, the audience only gets to see the pictures and not all the setup windows.
Also very handy comes the option to save slide shows as EXE files; this reduces the effort to start the show to one double click. Unfortunately, slide shows saved in EXE format are always played on the first monitor, so the user has to decide between the second monitor feature and the EXE saving.

Would there be a way to extend the "second monitor" feature to slide shows saved as EXE?
