full screen dual monitor mode

I like full screen mode allot (ie F11). I would like it if there were a second full screen mode that would utilize a dual screen setup.

Can you drag your VST's over to the second screen?

I have two LCD monitors and I stretch Live4 across two screens with no problem.

The trick to doing this is not to maximize the window, but set the height to the full monitor height, and then pull the the side of the window through to the second monitor

Thanks,

You misunderstood Glennzone...I have no problem dragging live across two screens...I am referring to the full screen mode....(F11 on PC). Where Live takes up the entire screen with no tool bars etc. But you can only use full screen on a single screen. I want to be able to do full screen/dual monitor mode.

Thanks anyways.

Yeah. I'd also like detachable window modules - the we could separate the session and arrange views and mixer, even the effects rack, and place them on either screen as we see fit.

Not popups - totally different concept
