If you can view different apps on different monitors you *should* be able to
view TS4 on multiple monitors.
TS4 will run in multi-monitor mode, and should do so even with different
video cards. Just make sure the TS4 program shell isn't maximized (hit the
restore down button). Resize the program shell to fit the full screen, then
drag the shell across a second monitor. You will need to change the TS4
startup options to not load any workspaces on startup. After the TS4 program
shell is sized over multiple monitors, load your workspace(s).
If you load workspaces saved under a multi-monitor system while the program
shell only spans one monitor, your workspace will get compressed and you
will have to manually resize and relocate all the graphs. I haven't found a
way to stretch a single chart across multiple screens in TS4. There seems to
be a restriction on the maximum size of a chart but that's not too big of a
limitation.

Subject: TS4 & dual monitors
I recently had an acquaintance tell me that he wasn't able to get TS4 to
work with dual monitors. His tech reckoned that it was not possible due to
TS4's older technology. He could get the whole of charting on a second
screen (while he viewed other non-TS apps on the first screen), BUT what he
couldn't do was view one workspace on one screen and another workspace on
the second screen. Because workspaces are sub-windows within charting,
they couldn't be dragged over.
Can anyone confirm or deny whether it's possible to view (full-screen): one
chart on one monitor, and another chart on a second monitor ...using TS4 ???
I'm wondering whether his problem was just his setup (different monitors at
different resolutions with an Ati Radeon VE card) ...or whether this is
genuinely a constraint of TS4.
Thanks
Simon.
