Duel Monitor Screen Layout Ideas

Post by clestochi »

I was wondering if anybody had any tips or ideas for screen layouts using two monitors. I just added a second monitor and would like to make the most efficient use of the additional real estate.

Thanks!

I'm actually using three, but the MWiF maps and forms are only spread across two.

Here's my setup (again only my main and 2nd monitors are used for MWiF maps and forms).

Also, my three monitor are all different ... that is different sizes but I've got them working well for me.

Thanks. I like the idea of having the charts up on the third screen. I might set that up with my iPad.

What I lack in playing skill I try to made up in game presentation, stat's collection and game file editing. [;)]
