Plan G in Fullsreenmode

[NH90Freak]

Hi there, my Name is Andy and i´m a new Plan-G User in FSX. First look will be great.
Is there a chance or a shortcut to swap to Plan-G in FSX Fullscreen mode?

regards
Andy

If you want to use Plan-G at the same time and on the same screen as FS, you will need to be in Windowed mode. This is true for all software.

If you have two monitors, and use FSX in windowed mode, you can place Plan-G (and other stuff) in the second monitor like many of us do. Welcome to the forum.

I have a second monitor not yet set up. How do I set this up to use 2nd monitor for Plan-5.    Below is the type of video card I am using.

nforce 8800 GTS KO ACS3 w/ 640MB,  nvidia driver 180.42

Right-click on the Windows desktop and set the NVIDIA Control Panel to your liking, (under Setup Multiple Displays). Once they are working properly in Windows (e.g. you can open multiple apps in either screen) you are all set.

Use FS9/FSX in windowed mode and you can then open different apps in the other screen (e.g. Plan-G, a browser, whatever). Make sure FS is set not to pause on task switching.

Make sure you configure the second monitor to be on the RIGHT, rather than the left (seriously).

Why is this Tim?? 

I have mine setup on the left, mainly for desktop logistical reasons, but it seems to all be working just fine.  Am I missing something ???
