I use not two, but 3(!) monitors on my Mac. The largest (and central) monitor displays my primary score file. The smallest displays tool pallettes and plugin dlgs. The middle-sized one displays a reference Finale file (such as a sketch file) or something else entirely, such as email.
Windows is less amenable to this setup due to WinFin being an MDI app. That is, displaying two different Finale files on two different monitors entails enlarging the main Finale window to be so big it covers both monitors. This is unfortunate, because the cracks and crevices would be useful for accessing desktop icons, as they certainly are on Mac. Furthermore, it is a bit awkward. Dual monitors are a significant reason Makemusic should provide an SDI option for Finale. However, even on WinFin, plugin windows float free of the main Finale window, so it would certainly be possible to drag them independently to a different monitor. Tool palettes can work the same way as well, although you have to fight them to keep them from docking with the main window. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
