Are you on PC or Mac?

if on PC, press "Windows Key" + p to open the multiple monitor setting choices, and choose "extend" instead of duplicate. This is the case in my setup at least.  Duplicate treats all 3 screens as 1 monitor when using ATI Eyefinity.  Extend treats each as its own.. 


You might have to do a little finagling to get the start menu and bar on whichever screen you want. that can be done in your video card's settings panel.

Also, you may want to look into an app called DisplayFusion. it's cheaper than Actualtools and looks like it does the same stuff plus more.. 

It's actually $9.29 right now on the Steam Summer Sale. - http://store.steampowered.com/app/227260

Whenever I try to use the AE command "ctrl + alt + \" to maximize AE to both monitors, AE maximizes BOTH my windows to my primary monitor (It stacks them on top of eachother). I can manually stretch the floating window to get kinda close to full screen on the second monitor, but it won't let me do it completely, and I feel like i'm getting redraw issues with windows that sit behind AE. Is this something with AE, or my monitor config, or perhaps my video card/drives?
