Two monitors?

Post by Cheman »

Hi Ivo
just curious if it would be a big deal to configure StarTools to work on a dual monitor system, where the image could display full frame on one monitor and the controls on the other?
If its a major undertaking, please feel free to disregard.
Thanks
Che

Edit: I just saw, someone asked about this a few months back.

Hi Che,

This feature is now planned for 1.4. The way my multi-platform homebrew abstraction layer works actually makes it fairly easy to do this, but the abstraction layer itself will be subject of a rewrite for 1.4. I now have some help with this aspect of ST's development (more news about this later :mrgreen: )
