Kitty strangeness on a 2nd monitor

Patrick Heverly - Tue 04/11/2008 16:20:12 CET +0100

Hi Friends,
     I've been trying Kitty for a bit and I'm impressed with some of its
features compared to Putty.
     I found a small issue so I thought I'd report it. I'll describe it
as best I can.
     I've found that when using an image background ... putting the Kitty
session on the non-main monitor will have the effect of all screen output being
written on top of the previous output. The result is an unreadable jumble.
The same jumbled window when moved to the main monitor looks normal.

Cheers,

Hi Patrick
Yes we also notice the problem with image background and second monitor.
But we don't have any solution from now.

What do I need to do to get the background image to show up? Do I simply drop a jpg into the same directory as kitty.exe or do I need to configure kitty.ini?

Thanks!

You just have to configure your image into the Window/Background panel in the configuration box.
