Retaining window layout on multiple monitors after disconnect

$

Hello,

 

In the process of evaluating View 5 running on vSphere 5. It seems very stable so far and very good performance over both PCOIP and RDP.

 

One gotcha that I have found though, wondering if anyone has a solution or recommended fix to:

 

Using the VMware View Client connecting to a vm in a pool, specifying Multiple Monitors on the connection login window, I can view the desktop on my dual-screen setup without any problem. If I then disconnect the session and then re-connect the session, the windows that were open previously have lost their position and all revert to the primary monitor. For example, if you are a heavy email user and always keep Outlook open on your seconday monitor, after you disconnect and then reconnect you would have to move the Outlook window back to the seconday monitor. While this may only be a slight annoyance in testing, if you have more than 2 monitors (say...4!) then this could be frustrating for the user doing this each morning.

 

Incidently, if connecting directly to the vm using RDP (version 7 for multi-monitor supprot), the above does not occur and windows remain in their original location.

 

Anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Owen.
