You can turn it on in the preferences in 5.0.1. Maybe it was removed in 5.2!?
sorry but I can't put a hand on that option, altough preferences are not hundreds...
can u tell how it is called?
I am running 5.0.1 fo the moment
thx

Ok, ok I'm sorry. i really, really didn't think anyone would buy it. (Particularly as I posted the pic some time ago as a Feature Request.)

You can stop trawling the preferences for this option. This screen layout is only available if you have Photoshop installed. Its also not very functional although it does look nice.

Sorry for any hopes I've just raised and then dashed on the cruel rocks of hoax.

That was just mean! OK, now do one showing the seesion view and arrangement view at the same time.

aww. i got excited. but, yeah, i would go out and buy another monitor if there was a way to have the session and arrangment views at the same time, OR to have arrangement view with a separate detachable mixer window, a mixer that you could make as big as you wanted (as opposed to the two inch mixer in session view). i think i'd like the detachable, sizeable mixer window better. the only reason i use session view is for the mixer

Two monitors

one for session and another for arrange

The dual view idea seems to be really taking off! I hope it shows up in v6 or sooner.

Does any devs know how hard it is to implement something like this?

Detachable windows sounds like Live's wonderful no mess interface going to hell. But a 'dual' mode would be fantastic. Vertical for those of us with a single screen (and a big res) and horizontal for multiple monitor setups.

As I am all for retaining the simplistic interface I think the multi monitor feature could implemented as a 'dual fullscreen mode' tickable menu item. i.e when you press f11 and 'dual fullscreen mode' is on, both displays go into fullscreen with screen 2 . In Preferences we could have a listbox for 'display 2 driver' and 2 little boxes where you could swap around 'C' and 'A' to decide which screen is Clip and which is arrage .

As said,IMO detachable windows is a bad idea and a step towards Live losing some of what makes it so efficient.

Yes! Dual View would be great! It would be esier to drag n drop files from the session view over to the arrange view.
