Thanks for the suggestions but I still can't get this to work. I am
running Hydravision and the ATI driver is new. I am running in extended
desktop mode which means that the displays are independent.I can't see
any settings to control placement of windows.
The only other possibility I can think of is that the Pivot software
that I run to switch the display on the first monitor from landscale to
portrait is intefering in some way. I know iTools and Pivot are
completely incompatible but I don't see why I should have problems
running in IDL with both monitors in landscape mode.
