Hey,

The checkboxes for centering child windows over parent window work fine for PS 2018 but PS 2019 doesn't seem to want to accept it?

Thanks

Could be that Adobe changed something with the way the windows open that is preventing DF from detecting them as new windows. What if you create a Trigger rule for Photoshop to move all of the windows to a specific monitor, do they move correctly?

That does seem to work!

The only thing is half of the palette windows I open want to come over at basically fullscreen. Is it possible to tell DF to centre/size only the windows that appear AFTER the main PS window appears at launch, maximized?

Thanks

You can exclude specific Window Classes from the Trigger rule, which I think would do what you're looking for. For windows that you don't want the rule to move, try this:

Edit the Trigger rule
Drag the blue target icon next to Window Class and drop it on the window that you don't want moved by the rule
Add a minus sign (-) in front of the Window Class that was automatically filled in
Save the rule and apply the main settings

Hope that helps!
