I have a 24" monitor and I am having issues with screen layout. Whatever i try it seems messy and takes up loads of screen area. how do people tackle this with all the chat windows they need open, overview etc. I live in null so have the scan and probe windows open too especially when I pvp. How do you guys set up your windows?

They use everything for the chats and overview and leave nothing for ship spinning. It is spread sheets online after all. would make it hard for manual orbiting in a dog fight though.

I am sure that people utilise it in many different ways. Im just hoping for some clues... I really wish you could seperate some windows from the main client and have them on another screen

Well you can, you just have to have the client in the middle of the two screens which makes some things more awkward, get a 3rd screen and drop the ship in the middle of the 3 and have windows on either side :P
