Player Pro in Unity with two monitors, primary being on the right, assumes taskbar to be on the left monitor when maximising windows

Hi,

basically my question is all there in the title. I am using Player Pro 6.0.4, host system is Windows 7 and guest is CentOs.

I am using two monitors and i have the one on the right as primary monitor meaning it is the one with a taskbar. Yet, when i enter Unity and then maximize any (except the original one of course) of the resulting windows on my left screen, it will leave room for a taskbar (which is not there) while when i maximize them on the right monitor, they cover the taskbar. So apparently, the windows do actually know the size and orientation of my taskbar but seem to assume the primary monitor allways to be on the left. All native Windows windows, including the main VMWare Player window of course, maximize as expected: Full screen on the left monitor and leaving room for the taskbar on the right one.

 

Am i missing some setting? Is it somehow possible to tell Player what parts of the screen it can use for Unity windows? Is this a bug or is it so unusual to make the right monitor primary that i should just deal with it?

 

Thanks a lot.

Robert
