 I have a two monitor setup where I have AMM configured to:
Enable multi-monitor Taskbar
Show the Start button
Show the notification area
Show the clock
Enable pinning to the taskbar

I have a small problem with the Show Desktop (Aero Peek) button on the right end of each taskbar.

If I hover over the button (Aero Peek), everything on both monitors becomes transparent and works perfectly.

But it's when I actually click the button (Show Desktop) that things seem odd.  On the primary monitor, clicking Show Desktop minimizes everything on both monitors and works as expected.  However, on the secondary monitor, clicking Show Desktop only minimizes the windows on the primary monitor.  That seems very strange to me.. ?

Is that the intended behavior?

Thanks-

 Hello,

The described behavior is erroneous.
The "Show desktop" button on the secondary taskbars should also minimize all windows, independently of their monitors.

Does this happen all the time, or only when some specific set of applications is running?

Is your Windows 7 32-bit or 64-bit?

 Thanks for the reply.

It happens all the time, regardless of what applications are running.

Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit with AMM 2.2 (still in trial mode).

Any ideas?

Thanks-

 Kenneth,

I'm afraid we cannot reproduce the error on our test systems.

Would you mind if I send you a small test utility?

 Sure, go for it.

Also, FWIW, I tried the latest beta and had same results.

Thanks-
