Greetings!
Ref: Prior posting at Dual Monitor - 1 view outside (ahead), 1 view instruments dated Fri Jan 28, 2011 within this forum.
Like the person in the post I referenced above, I want to try and configure FG to use multiple monitors - one monitor to represent the view "out-the-window" (and capable of having the view changed between front, left, and right side windows if possible), and the other monitor to represent the instruments. The "window" monitor is located above the "instruments" monitor. In Mint 18, I have them set as "continuous" monitors, the mouse being able to move up-and-down between them.
I realize that this prior posting is dated back in 2011 and references a version that was superseded a long long time ago. I also realize that there have been considerable improvements and changes to the way graphics, viewpoints, (etc.), are handled. The references are also old documents, referring to ancient versions of FG.
Can anyone who really knows their way around this topic speak to this in light of current code releases and current capabilities? Perhaps referencing documents that are more current as well?
Note to Hooray: No, I'm not trying to over-engineer this one. This is just a plain 'ole case of "I wanna do it!" I'm not holding up testing just for this. I'm just curious, and since I have the two monitors - and The Latest And Greatest version of FG - I thought I'd ask it to stretch it's legs a bit.
Thanks for all your help!
