Hi,
I've been using Eclipse 2.1 on Windows 2000 for a while. Now I got a second
monitor, and both screens have different resolutions. When I maximize the
Eclipse window now, it maximizes to the height of the smaller screen, and
there
is still space left on the bottom of the window on the larger screen.
I would like to make use of this space, but to do so, I would have to drag
views (like "Console" or "Package Explorer") to the desktop. Is there a way
to allow this?
Thank you in advance.
Yours sincerely,
Mathias Ricken

I'm pretty sure that views can not be drag'd outside of Eclipse.
Like you, I'm now using dual monitors, but rather than maximizing
Eclipse in one monitor, I stretch it across both monitors. I have the
editor and task views on the right hand side taking up most of that
monitor. And the other views such as Package Explorer, Outline,
Bookmarks, etc. on the left. This works out very well for me and allows
the Editor to be large enough so that I can vertically split it into two.
However, unlike you, both of my monitors are the same size and resolution.

You can also open two Workbench windows (Window > New Window) and put one on
each monitor.
