October 21, 20187 yr Just switched from FSX to P3D. I want to be able to place 2D instruments (like the 2D GNS 530, or the A2A 2D clipboard) onto my second monitor. Primary monitor has P3D VC. This was always possible in FSX when in Full Screen mode, and I just assumed it would work the same in P3D, but apparently not. I've searched and searched, and am struggling to find guidance. I've tried to create a new view, Undock it, and move it to the 2nd monitor. I can do this, but there's no option to make this view "panel only" where I can drag/drop a 2D instrument. Any ideas? Thank you. James
October 21, 20187 yr Author Also, I discovered where I can right-click on the 2D instrument/gauge itself and choose "Undock". This would work fine, except for the fact that the gauge automatically maximizes to the size of my monitor. Anyone know how to stop the gauge from maximizing/resizing? James
January 14, 20197 yr Hi James, Sorry to resurrect this, but was wondering if you found a solution? Thanks, Anthony
January 15, 20197 yr I think once you resize the gauge it will stay that size going forward. At least that’s the way it works for me. Kent i7 4790k @4.7Ghz 32Gb DDR3 1333 RTX 2070 GPU Win10 Pro
January 15, 20197 yr Same for me. Once resized it stays that way. Odd though, I've never had one go full screen immediately, only when I accidentally make it bigger.

January 15, 20197 yr Yea, I’ve had the full screen thing happen. Seems like when I update P3D to a new version. Kent i7 4790k @4.7Ghz 32Gb DDR3 1333 RTX 2070 GPU Win10 Pro
