About of out-of-window toolbars in 2 displays

[Alberto Casanova]

It would be great to move all windows and tools palettes from one display to
another. I use photoshop/photocaster to do the graphic design i use on
director. For example, in photoshop you can have all tool bars outside the
main screen to the second screen, so you have more realstate on the first
one to display the document. I would like this feature on director, since
the stage, score and, you know, all those windows fulls my main screen and i
cant get them to the second screen.

Bleh, sucky english.

Thanks for your comments.

I don't know why they haven't done this.... If you look at other macromedia
programs like fireworks for example, that will let you have palettes outside
of the main program window. It's just another one of the *features* of
director I guess...

Hi Alberto,


The Director application does not let you drag the windows/panels
outside of the main app window on Windows OS. However, you can use
Director on two monitors by stretching the whole application window
across the second screen. Then you can position all the windows/panels
where you like.

There is an older TechNote that discusses this:

Is it possible to use Director for Windows with a dual monitor
configuration? (TechNote 13377)
