Split screen

[dienamics]

No doubt there is a thread for this already but...

I have recently rigged up two monitors to my computer, 1 running off the DVI and the other the VGA. Just wondering how you set it up to run dual screens within FSX for virtual cockpit. At the moment I can use VC and drap the knee board, ATC boxes to the right hand monitor.

Any help would be awesome.

any one have a solution?

Maybe run in windowed mode rather than full screen, and resize the window to cover both screens ?

Ive tried that but no dice. Is there a setting within FSX for this?

As far as I know the FS series have never worked well with dual monitors. I run dual monitors, in full screen mode the secondary monitor cannot display anything, it goes blank. In windowed mode I can drag the view across to the other monitor, and if I recall correctly, could un-dock gauges and panels in FS9, but it was messy and didn't always give the desired result. Haven't tried it in FSX yet.

Tried Google?

Use the term: fsx on two monitors

I have been undocking and dragging windows and then "alt enter" to full screen and then resizing - this has worked pretty well for the entire world tour so far
