March 5, 200620 yr Hi guys,I have taken the plunge to widescreen world and I am after some help to setup my screens. I am running FS9 on (2) computers using Wide FS and have 3 monitors. (1) Dell 24" for VC only -- I would like to move my FMC, console, etc to one of the other monitors. How is this done.ThanksAndrew
March 5, 200620 yr Andrew,Making sure you are in windowed mode, right click on the panel you want to move and select undock, grab to top bar that appears with your mouse and drag it to desired monitor, repeat for other panels you wish to move, return to full screen mode if you desire.Gary 9800X3D | 4090 | 64GB | 2+1TB NVME | 2TB SSD | 2TB HDD | 85/50/43” TVs | Quest 3 | DOF H3 Motion Rig | Buttkicker | T.16000M Flight Kit MSFS @ 4K Ultra DLSS Performance FG 80 FPS | VR VDXR Godlike 80Hz SSW | MSFS VR DLSS Quality, Ultra Preset - Windows 11 Acer Nitro 5 | i5-11400H | RTX 3060 6 GB | 32GB DDR4 | 15.6" FHD IPS 144Hz | 2 x 512 GB SSD | Windows 11
March 6, 200620 yr Author Gary,Thanks for your assistance. One thing I have noticed is that the resolution of the other monitor changes to 800x600 as soon as I go into full screen mode on the primary display. Both monitors are 1280x1024. Any suggestionsRegards,Andrew

Have you also checked the resolution for both monitors in Options > Settings > Display under the Hardware tab? The box that displays the video driver information is a dropdown list displaying both monitor's drivers and each can be set indepenently.I turn off T&L, Mips, and filtrering on the monitor that displays panels only as well a reducing the color depth to 16-bit. Of course I set high res to display crisp panels and gauges. I don't know whate effect this has on performance but I feel like it helps. R-
