Not sure if it is possible to achieve what I want - it seems not.
Basically, I want PMView when loading an image to
- remembers its last position (including which monitor)
- size to fit the picture
This doesn't appear to be possible with any combination of the settings (which are very confusing to me).

FYI I have a perhaps unusual setup:

CODE
+---------++--------+
|         ||        |
|     1   ||  2     |
|         ||        |
+---------+|        |
           |        |
           |        |
           +--------+

That is monitor #2 is in portrait mode. I use monitor 1 for browsing with Windows explorer and monitor 2 for pmview to appear on.

If I set "Window Position" to "Never move window" then PMView remembers to appear on monitor 2, but is tiny, about 100x20 pixels, only displaying part of the title bar.
If I set to "Move window when required" then PMView sizes the window right, but moves it to monitor 1.
If I set "Position and size to virtual desktop" then PMView remembers the monitor but sizes to fit the screen (not maximised, which is also wrong)

I have set
"Resize window when loading a new image"
"Resize window when editing or zooming"
"Zoom to fit enlarges window to fit screen"

Also, the preferences tab is appearing on monitor 1 for me, even though PMView is on monitor 2. Sometimes this results in it appearing off screen.
