Hi,
I have two monitors connected to my mac. Is it possible to use some key combo when opening an application to specify which monitor to send the app to ? Thanks in advance

Which monitor the menus appear on will be a system level pref, and will apply to all applications. As far as app windows, drag the window to the monitor you wanty it on, and when you re-launch the app, the window should re-apppear where you put it until you move it again.

Hello and welcome to the forum DevNine,

We have a few wonderful rules around here regarding the size of your signature file. The maximum size is 140 pixels wide by 40 pixels high. This is meant to keep things consistent and usable for all users. If you wouldn't mind, please adjust your sig accordingly.

Cheers,

Sig Nazi Staff.
