Hi Young,
If there are more than one graphics card, current v1.2.1 beta1
will always use the first graphics device select for both monitors.
Thus the canvas in the other monitor will not get hardware
accelerated (emulation mode is used). This bug
4377569 - D3D: No hardware acceleration when second monitor is used
is fixed in the upcoming v1.2.1 beta2.
In the upcoming beta2, as long as the windows is completely
inside one display monitor, the rendering device for that
display will use. It also works if you drag the window from
one monitor to another monitor, the underlying graphics device will
automatically reconstruct to fully utility hardware
acceleration. However, if the window is move to
cross two monitors, emulation mode will use instead.
