Ever since I got my new monitor I've been wanting to play osu! on it. I've searched options and there is no choice for what monitor it displays on. This would be a really nice feature so I can change monitor set ups. For anyone really.

Just set your monitor, on which you want to have osu! as main, and it should be there (probably).

set osu! to windowed mode lower than the screen res so you can get a title bar, Move the window to the second monitor then alt+enter to enter fullscreen. After you exit osu on that screen it will continue to open on that screen till you move it again.

Problem is my tablet won't reach over there.

Start osu! and press "Shift + Windows key + left/right arrow key". This combination swaps windows between monitors and works with fullscreen osu! aswell.
As for the tablet issue, you can set your area to either of your monitors in settings. If you are using bamboo its under "mapping" section of pen mode.

Oh thanks that worked :D. I still want this feature to be added though.

The way OSes handle this is pretty good I don't think this is really needed to be a built in feature.

This seems unnecessary. How many people would actually use this?

You can already do so with your tablet preferences. Just move the window if you don't like where it is.

In your osu!.<username>.cfg file, there's a line "Display = <number>". The number is the number of the screen osu! will start on.

interesting, a quick-access to this shouldn't be very hard to add after all.

This doesn't seem to work at the moment, though.

i'm still having problems with this!! i launch osu! in fullscreen borderless and it still always moves to the smaller resolution monitor i DON'T want it to start on... my main display. I want my main display to stay the same, so i receive desktop notificatios from skype and discord, but osu! seems to make this impossible. I tried manually changing the cfg file and not much is working... please help.

EDIT: to update, i DO have osu! working. it seems Cutting Edge will only run on main display monitor...
