Hi all

I'm doing some testing running AutoCAD on Citrix, and seem to be having a small problem, with the ribbon not appearing on a PC running dual screens, AutoCAD runs fine on a single screen but not on dual screen, any idea of a fix ?

I've had issues accessing machines that had dual monitors on it with Citrix.  I think there is a setting somewhere, but by default it only uses one screen, the main screen.  If the ribbon or any other panel/window/dialog box is on the second screen, it won't be seen.  It will have to be moved by the user.

Hi

Was this the reg change you were talking about

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\CtxHook\AppInit_Dlls\Multiple Monitor Hook]


"DefaultHooks"=dword:00000801

Thanks for your help
