Hi All,
I encounter a problem on VMware View Windows 7 on dual monitors, I can start a windows 7 enterprise on dual monitor (extension mode) but all the windows browsers or explorers cannot be moved smoothly from one screen to another screen, movement within a single screen is fine.
However, Windows XP does not encounter the above problem....
Anyone, have the same problem and how can i solve it?
My infrastructure: View 5.0, vSphere 5.0, vCenter 5.0

I experienced the same issue after updating to View 5.0 and this is what worked for me:

Adding that Configuration Parameter as described fixed it on my dual monitor setups.
Is this on a Zero Client?

Hi Linjo,

The display setting on Windows 7 pool
Max. number of monitor: 4
Max. resolution: 1920 x 1200
How about disabling the visual effect
'Show window contents while dragging'
under System properties->Advanced->Performance->Settings
This won't fix the laggy transition animation, but will stop windows from trying to redraw the window while dragging. You end up just dragging the outline of the window and it redraws when you drop it.
I'd recommend disabling all visual effects (except for 'use visual styles on windows and buttons) for best performance.
Yes~
I already disable all visual effect and adjust to Best Performance, still got the movement problem.
How much video ram is assigned to the vms?
