Has anyone else used this program?
I currently have a demo version running which allows me to, with the minimum of fussing about, split the screen over two monitors. Flight info on one & either Map view,3D or a split screen on the other.Might be that I have been lucky with my screen set-up, but well worth downloading the demo & having a try. Looks good on mine.Unfortunately I can't take a screenshot as my capture program treats the two screens as separate!

Yes I have been using Ultramon for a year or so now. I just use it to split my two screens up, never use it to run the RB over two screens.  You can take a screenshot as long as you turn one screen off while doing it. I also like the idea of having a taskbar on each screen.

Hi Brian,

I like to split up my RB-screen aswell.

is this software (and a second monitor ofcourse) the only thing you need to split up the RB screen? Or do you need some more hardware?

Thank you in advance for your answer!

UltraMon is the only software you need. It helps if you have two identical, or at least similar resolution screens, if not it only uses the smaller resolution. I have three screens, two of exact same type & one that I use for emailetc which is slightly smaller.If I spread it across the three screens it uses the small screen's resolution & you get some of the background on the Airnav screens (I hope this makes sense!

Anyway, with whatever screens you are using you should be able to stretch the Radarbox screen across the monitors, with a little tweaking.

Good luck, come back if you need any advice.

Oh & 1 other thing you can have seperate wallpapers for each screen,which is why I downloaded it in the first place!
