Dual Monitors - free standing windows? [message #55936] Mon, 21 July 2003 16:42 Go to next message

I am running with dual monitors on a W2K machine. The way eclipse
allows window arrangement is great for a single monitor machine. But
now that I have a second monitor, I would like to be able to pull off
certain views, and place them outside of the eclipse program window.
Like how Photoshop does it, if any of you are familiar with that. That
way, I can have the editor, navigator, outline, etc. docked into eclipse
on one of my monitors. On my other monitor, I can have the Problems,
Task List, and Console windows open. I kind of got this to work from
the View -> New Window method... but it only seems to work if I'm in the
debug mode... then everything stays synced to my primary window.

I'd prefer to be able to just grab the window, and pull it outside of
eclipse, and have it appear as a free standing window. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Dan
