> Hi there, I'm using the function system.gui.openDesktop() to manage a multi screen application. Occasionally the desktop opening fails, without any log. code: for d in range(0,dn): frame= system.gui.openDesktop(windows=['myWindow'], title='Desk ' + str(d), handle=str(d), x=1920\*d, y=0, width=1920, height=1080) The fail is random, on desk 0, 1 or both. most of the time it works, but it is annoying and I'm wondering if I'm making any mistake. Any suggestion?

You may have to make do with lesser (or broken) functionality in v7.9.
