Hi there,

Found your wonderful app from http://www.lifehacker.com/software/microsoft-outlook/download-of-the-d ay-desktask-159165.php

Have installed - and run into the dual monitor problems - but I like this app.

I know word-wrap is on the ToDo list so can I add to the requirement? Would be good to be able to set a 'maximum width' and have the text wrap once it hits that limit. Ohh and keep the icons aligned to the first line of text if an item does wrap, saves confusion I think.

Anyway, I'm going to run this for a while but already looks like a keeper. Thanks for all your hard work, glad it's donation-ware.

Yes, at the moment DeskTask does not support a dual monitor setup.

This will be implemented, not sure how at the moment, but is planned.

Can you be a bit more specific on this?

I think what he means is that the icon should appear first, then the text. When the line is wrapped, this second line is aligned with the text of the first line and NOT the icon.

I can't attach images, so here is an attempt to explain ....

ICON text on line 1
-------text on line 2

Where by the ------ is blank space.

What he thinks will be confusing (quite rightly) is the following:

ICON text on line 1
text on line 2

Thanks
