Dropping doesn't work with extend monitor

Long Nguyễn Xuân 6 years ago updated by Michael (Ramen Software) 6 years ago 2

I'm using 7+ Taskbar tweaker v5.5 on Windows 10 with 2nd monitor. (default extend, not display fusion or anything) 

The option "Dropping" to "Open with" work well with programs on main taskbar but doesn't work on external taskbar. 

Could you have a look on it?

That's a limitation of Windows. The "Open with" feature comes with Windows, and can be used without the tweaker by holding Shift while dragging the file. The tweaker just makes explorer think that Shift is being pressed.


Windows doesn't allow to pin items on secondary taskbars, so it looks like the "Open with" feature gets disabled as a side effect. It might be possible to fix this with the tweaker - I might look at it when I have some spare time.


Since that's not a bug of the tweaker, I'm changing it from "Bug" to "Idea".
