Using Multiple Monitors

Good morning,

I am today using a brand new Display, a DELL U2515H (2560x1440) with a DPI (display port) connexion, along with my previous old external screen (now wired with a VGA-VGA cable), a full HD Iiyama.

I am very disappointed to see that the SQL Developer window DOES NOT display itself correctly anymore, but in my laptop screen (HP 1366x768) : when I drag and drop my SQL Dev window to any of my two external screens, the contents of the window freezes in a funny way, and does not do anything anymore. And when I drag it back to my laptop screen, it works again ! (but in a very low resolution : 1366 x 768...).

Here is my configuration :

- SQL Developer 17.2.0.188, build 188.1159

- Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 64 bits, 8GB RAM

I tried to switch from the Windows aero theme to Windows 7 Basic : it does not improve anything.

Your help is welcome.! I am working full time on Oracle SQL Developer, and this is really a problem for me.

Thx,

Olivier
