Moving between dual screen... Turn key solutions?

[mj-barton]

Here's a challenge I have been trying to overcome for sometime.

Frequently I have application windows (Netflix in firefox) that I have to manually move from screen to the second screen (hd tv in living room). I would love to be able to right click the window bar and click "Send to TV Screen" and have this done automatically. It would be a huge increase the spousal approval factor!

Has anyone else tries this?

This would be on a xp machine or 7 machine. (sorry Linux users)

I use ultramon. Lets me create hotkeys for moving windows from monitor to monitor. You can also have icons added at the top right for window management.

Windows 7 has a hotkey for this.

Shift + Win + left or right arrow - shifts an application window between monitors
Win+ Left or Win + right - docks to right or left side of the monitor.

I use my Logitech G15 macro software and set up keys for all 4 of these shortcuts on it as dedicated keys. It's handy when my 2nd monitor is off.

I love DisplayFusion. Like it much better than UltraMon (used it for years, but was always buggy).

Those are pretty nifty. I always wondered how people figure those out.
