In REV 3 it would be awesome if it came with dual monitor support and the ability to place elements of the UI or overview on the secondary screen. I dont know if the demand for dual screen is high but it does exist and I'm sure it wouldn't take to much for CCP to add the support.

Out of curiosity what makes you so sure it wouldn't take to much to add the ability to support dual screens?

Basically, as a dual-monitor user, all I want is the possibility to shift the center of the screen to the left or right by some amount of pixels. That's all. It'd also be ok for the 2D-elements to stay where they are, just the 3D part would be enough.
(Or in other words: right-drag to the left and hold that permanently.)

Well I wont pretend to understand even the basics of programing but what makes me sure is that CCP have created despite its problems one of the largest and most complicated games around So I'm sure just adding the ability to drag and drop parts of the UI/overview to another Monitor isn't much of a problem for the developers.
I think the mechanism for dual monitor support is largely from the drivers (Only my assumption I dont really know)

There's hardware that will treat multiple monitors as if it were one big monitor. This can often be done in the video driver of a dual-head video card, and Matrox has some external boxes for splitting one signal across 2 or 3 video cards. From Windows point of view, it looks like a single big rectangular monitor. However, it's nice to keep the seperation between monitors when you're not playing and using your computer for productive work. ;)

It used to be an option in the graphics menu... but it gotten taken out.
I think you can still use it though... just do horizontal spanning on your video card and set the resolution to the max. (eve does go to some pretty impressive resolutions)

First off...yea, this would be kewl.
Second. If you scroll down in the main forum window, there's a whole section about the technologies / features used in eve, including a section on ideas. At the top of the ideas section, there is a most suggested ideas sticky. Take a peek.
Might want to post there if you have any suggestions

I know this has been been posted before but didn't know it was in a sticky, The forum search tends to necro things so I dont use it
But with Rev III and the new engine on the way I thought it was time to suggest it again.

I also think this would be excellent. I find having everything on one monitor cramed up is even more annyoning when looking at my blank monitor right beside it.

If eve gets native dual monitor support I'd like to see it used for the display of information and not just an extension of the space view.. Think of how nice it would be to have the map open along with all your chat market and other non combat/mining related windows out of the main view.. Plus of course you could also use it to have your main view on both displays if that floats your boat..

Yes. It would be awesome to set things up so that most or all of the UI was on one screen, showing the map in the background, with the other screen being an uncluttered space view.
