when you run the secondary display in full screen mode. This person
should try that instead of using the windowed mode and positioning it by
hand."
Have you tried having the 2nd monitor window set to Full Screen mode? If might make this work the way you expect.

The number of monitors in my configuration is always three.
It's a VAIO Z, and it can handle up to four monitors, in fact.

"They referred to resizing and moving it, which is why I think they don't understand that you can push the fullscreen version of the secondary window onto any monitor you want it on by dragging the main app window.
We don't try to remember which monitor they last had it on, we always just pick the monitor to the right of the app monitor. So they'll have to push it onto their third monitor every time they turn on the view."
Sound like you figured out what he suggests in the first paragraph.
So, if you push the maximized main window right twice, you can't get it to the 3rd screen?

Here are how the display numbers appear.
[2 (primary)] [3 (should be secondary)] [1 (internal)]
I want to use 2 & 3 (and theoretically I should be able to), but 2 & 1 is used instead.
This may due to that my configuration includes an internal display (which may have some kind of priority).
In any case, it would be nice if a third (or more) display is recognized as "third display" in LR.

I have similiar problem with my configuration: two identical 1600x1200 Samsung 20" displays and 1920x1080 Panasonic 32" TV (connected to two NVidia graphic cards). In this case Lightroom's 2nd display always jumps to TV screen (when in fullscreen mode) when main app is on Windows' main display. This is independant of screen numbering in Windows settings (which depends on physical connection of the screens). This is very annoying :/
The only solution for me so far is dragging the main app to the no. 2 monitor - then Lightroom's 2nd screen appears on no. 1 screen (main). Problem in this case is accessing the Windows' taskbar (as I use auto-hide function) - the taskbar doesn't slide out when I move the mouse to the bottom of the screen with full-screen-mode Lightroom's 2nd window. Very irritating :/

I have 3 monitors: Main (1) is central, number 2 on its right, and number 3 on its left. I cannot manage to have LightRoom display the secondary screen in full screen mode on the right most monitor. Montior cables were switch, different monitor numbering tried to no avail.

it should be possible to assign the second screen view
to a specific display.
