Dirk,
We use the same setup (2 lcd's on a server 2003-AW70's and 2 lcd's on an =
XP box-WP70's) without any problems on ver 8.3. Do you have the 2nd_fv =
program and fv_cmds modified for two foxviews?

Thanks for your reply Mike,
You're correct, 2 lcd's on 1 XP pc. Unfortunately the monitors are
configured as seperate monitors, ie 1 showing the process display and =
the
other showing the select (using foxview and display manager) to follow =
up
on sequence behaviour etc...
For the moment we're disabling the 2nd monitor option when we need to be =
in
the ICC, but it's easy to forget and then the ICC gets stuck again as =
soon
as the mouse pointer is moved to the other screen, we then need to kill =
the
ciocfg task and the changes we made are lost if the icc was not
checkpointed. We have this problem only in the ICC not in the rest of =
the
foxview screens like foxselect, foxview etc.....
It's a luxury problem I know, but once you're used to working with 2
monitors....
rgds,
Dirk

Dirk:
I'm assuming that by a 2nd monitor, you mean that you're using two
LCDs/CRTs on one PC running Windows XP. If I'm wrong, ignore the rest.
This is from my experience at home, not with Foxbroro software, so this
may be a stretch. Is XP set such that each monitor is configured
independently, or are they treated as one large screen? I'm not sure =
what
you're using, but I know that most newer nVidia graphics cards support
both methods. Let's say that you're using 1024x768 for each monitor. =
Is
XP set for 1024x768 for two monitors configured independently, or is it
set for 2048x768 stretched across two monitors? I bet that the latter
option won't give you trouble because applications shouldn't notice the
difference between this and a single monitor.
It can't hurt to try. :)
