Setting up multiple monitors

Hello,

I've recently acquired a second monitor and i'd like to set up EVE in such a way (since the monitors are of very different sizes, 28' and 19') that the ship, main UI, locked targets, selected item and drone interface remain on my main monitor(with the ship centered on it) and i can move stuff like my overview, local chat, directional scan, in-station market/fitting window to my second monitor. Does anyone have any experience regarding this kind of set-up and if so, how did you do it? I've seen some Fanfest videos with EVE running on multiple monitors, but there doesnt seem to be anything in the options, and google searches point me to 4 year old threads about this.

Thank you.

You can increase your in-game resolution in the options menu. Select the one that covers both your monitors.
Or in windowed mode you can stretch it out so it covers both your monitors.
Then in-game you can move your interface windows as you like.


Hope it helps

Today I learnt how to adjust the camera. So... oops ;)
