Use GSX from second monitor
« on: August 30, 2022, 12:26:14 am »
Is there a way of accessing GSX's features from my second monitor using some external tool/application instead of using the menu in the sim? Would make it far less immersion breaking.

Undock the menu and move it to the other monitor.

Is it possible to move the OSD massage panel to a second screen?

I'm not sure, need to do some tests.

I will test it on my next flight, but with the menu opening/closing all the time, will it stay external?

Yes, we are aware of it, it's not a bug of course, it's just the menu has been designed for single monitors (see the explanation at Page 66-67 of the manual when it closes itself and why ), we'll have to add a special "pinned" mode, in which it will never close.

That would be great, thank you. But I'm also kean to see what the guys developing a "plugin" for the streamdeck will be able to do - that would also work for me.
