This was an issue for me this morning when my recently installed copy of UltraMon had expired.
Instead of purchasing a license (which I would be happy to do, but cannot on this workstation as it belongs to the company and was denied), I was introduced to an open-source alternative here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dualmonitortb/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/dualmonitortb/
Not as feature-complete as UltraMon - though provides me with a working taskbar on my second monitor.
Anyone on HN know of more software to extend the taskbar? Open-source, free or commercial.
- x0054 12y agoBuy the license, crack UltraMon. This way you have what you want and your karma is clean. :) I used to use UltraMon on my desktop all the time, before moving to OSX. I find it preposterous that the multi monitor task bar is so hard to implement that it wasn't worth doing until Windows 8.
- Someone 12y agoYour employer allows you to install UltraMon on their workstation, but does not allow you to pay for a copy? Or are they willing to install freeware, but not commercial tools, even if you pay for them? Or do they deem UltraMon detrimental for your productivity?
