Search Multiscreen Utility?

Is there any add-on that enhances the playing experience when using two monitors? I'm looking for anything.

To start with an eeeeasy one, you can activate ExtMFD (on the modules tab) and press CTRL+F4 to bring up as many MFDs you need, then move them on the second monitor...

The drawback to ExtMFD is that I've not seen anything which will record the positions of those MFD's meaning that everytime you start Orbiter you have to move them again.

I use autohotkey to open and position ExtMFD instances when I start Orbiter. There's an example script posted on the wiki.

Orbiter works on Win7 in windowed mode when stretched over two monitors. I don't know if there's a suitable resolution for your setup, however.

That's a good tip! :tiphat:
