Does anyone know if any (or all!) of the QL emulators can work on
the
second screen of a two-monitor PC setup? My PC can only handle a
single
monitor, so although I have QPC, QemuLator and QL2K on this PC, I
can't
test them.
I think that what you have to do is drag the application to the
edge of
the screen when 2 monitors/2 desktops/wide desktop are in use and
they
will 'snap' onto the second screen, though it's a long time since I
used
a 2 screen setup.
It's a Quanta helpline request from a member who says this would
influence his choice of which QL emulator he uses on his Windows
PC. He
said it'd be handy to leave all his PC applications running on one
monitor and the "QL" by itself on the other, don't know why (unless
he
just doesn't want to get caught using a QL at work by being able to
turn
off monitor 2 if his boss approaches or something!!!)
Qemulator works fine in second screen under XP in VMware on a
Macbook.
... and it does not *snap* - it can overlap both windows, as do all
other programs. I often use this feature to see very long lines of
code in terminal windows which cannot line wrap.

Ah, thanks for that. I couldn't remember whether or not things
'snapped' from one ot the other or just moved continuously,
overlapping both. It's so long since I last used 2 monitor systems!
I'll pass the info on, thanks everyone.
