I just wired a second screen to my computer to have dual display.
Does anyone know if it's possible to have RawShooter display the parameters on one screen and the image being edited on the second screen (full screen).
Thanks. |

| Don't know about Raw Shooter, but the Nikon Capture software does allow this. I use it for Raw preprocessing and conversion and am pretty happy with it. |

I believe the answer will be that you can't since RSE is a one window program.

| Isn't there a setting that allows the current window to stretch across more than one monitor? It would be in the properties for the display setup, not in the program you're running. |

Yes, I can stretch the program over both windows, but the photo is always displayed between the "editing box" and the "thumbnail/folder box", so i can't have the photo full screen on either screen
bummer... |

Thanks for the tip. I've had 2 screens forever and never thought of doing this with RawShooter. I've always adjusted the folder column on the left to give a view size of 25%. Now I just put thumbnails on the left and streched the window and I am getting 30%. Should be heaps better. |

I have two screens too.
Pressing Tab removes the thumbs and the folder pane and gies you a nice size view (which you can spread across the screens if you want. You can still move thumb to thumb with the arrow keys, and your adjustment pane is still there as well.
Then of course, for ranking, you can do screen slideshow, and RSP shows you the sharpened version, even when reduced.

I use dual displays at home and work. I don't know the RawShooter software you are using, but if you could (using only a single monitor) open both the parameters and the image in two seperate windows within the application - then you can accomplish what you want.
Photoshop, for example, has tool bars that can be positioned wherever you like. You can also open several image windows as well. I stretch my photoshop window accross both monitors - I place ALL of my toolbars on the left monitor and reserve the right for my image.
It really has little to do with the application being used.
Get the latest drivers and configuration tools for your your video card. Use their setup program to install the drivers and applications.
You should now have a suite of software controls for your monitors. Usually, there is an icon in your task bar to manage the display configuration. Also, if you right click on your desktop and go to settings-advanced, it should take you to the display configuration.
Anyway... the display configuration software should allow you to specify how you want the two monitors to work together. I have mine set to "spanning" - so that images stretch accross the two screens. This means that if I stretch an application window, it will continue to expand onto my second monitor. Then, within that application I open two windows (parameters and image for example), placing each on a seperate monitor. |
