And if you switch to windowed mode does the display become undockable? Hit ALT+ENTER.

so maybe, go window mode, undock, move it to the second monitor, and then go full screenjd

Hi there,I run in windowed mode when using a second monitor to avoid the problems this can cause.If I do what is being suggested (go window mode, undock, move it to the second monitor, and then go full screen) it does work but my second monitor then just displays the undocked box. the rest of the display is blank and, for example, the FSNavigator display I usually have on it disappears.This happens whenever I undock and move one of the FS windows to the second monitor then go full screen. Maybe it's the way my video drivers work but that's what happens ;-)The only satisfactory method I've found when using a second monitor and wanting to have some of the FS windows (including the RC one) displayed on it is to run the main display in windowed mode.Also, as might have been mentioned already, make sure the mouse pointer is over the menu bar of the radar contact window before right clicking and undocking. Otherwise the wrong window gets undocked and the RC window disappears!All the best,John

Mike,One final thing I just remembered - it's a long time since I used it.If you really want to run FS9 in full screen mode and have the RC text appear on the second monitor you can use a utility called 'ShowText' which is provided with the advdisplay download from http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.htmlIf you want to try it let me know and I'll try and write down some step by step instructions.All the best,John

Hide Menu Bar (Greyed Out and Checked)I am unable to move this interactive text box outside FS2004, this occurs in Windows Mode and Full Screen Mode.Should I uninstall RC4 and start over?.

Can you undock other panels and move them to your second monitor?-Paul

Hello,Yes, I have no problems moving other panels. My only problem is with RC4.

Hi Mike,Re-installing RC shouldn't have any effect since the window itself is part of FSUIPC.I find that in full screen mode I can't undock any windows. I get exactly what you showed in your screenshot - which is actually the context menu for undocking the forward view window with the undock option greyed out. The RC window menu is much shorter.Clearly this is at least one other window which, like me, you cannot undock in full screen mode.Can you confirm that you are able to undock windows in full screen mode and move them to your second monitor. I'm probably getting confused here. I took your last message to suggest you can but the screenshot suggests otherwise.All the best,John

Edited to correct version of FS tested with but it's the same with both FS9 and FSX.Michael,I have just checked on my own system and can confirm the following...1. The Undock option is NOT available when FS9 is in full-screen mode.2. In Windowed mode when I right-click on the Radar Contact title bar "Undock Window" and "Close Window" are both available. I can successfully undock the window but because I only have a single display for that PC I cannot move it to another display.If you are unable to select "Undock Window" whilst in Windowed mode then you should update your graphics drivers as there appears to be an issue with the current ones.How long have you had this PC and have you ever updated the graphics drivers?

reinstalling rc, will not fix fsuipc or fs problems.maybe try this. move (not copy) the fsuipc.ini from the modules directory to somewhere else. fsuipc will create a new one, and maybe it will work betterjd

Perhaps the operating system is not up to the quality of the hardware.It happens sometimesAybe
