mRemoteNG 1.68 on Windows 7 32-bit, PuTTY 0.60. Using on a laptop with screen size 1440x900 with VGA-connected extra monitor size 1680x1050. Smaller laptop screen is "Primary".

When maximizing mRemoteNG on the secondary monitor, the PuTTY window is maximized within it, but does not fill the entire space available to it, and its border is visible. The PuTTY window can be manually un-maximized and resized to fill the space, but maximizing it returns it to its smaller-than-available size. Seems like it thinks it has only as much space as if the container mRemoteNG window was maximized on the smaller built-in laptop screen.

Workaround: making the larger external monitor "Primary" to Windows fixes this, and PuTTY is sized correctly in mRemoteNG.
