So my setup is 2 1920x1080 monitors, one is portrait, and the other is landscape. Is there a way to make eve work on both? the best solution I came up with was windowed and dragging it over so it covered the portrait monitor, and just part of the screen was.....missing I suppose, because it made the game into a boxed resolution, and part of the screen on the landscape side is cut off.


now, the reason why I want this, is to have all my info, inventory, market, mail, fitting. All that jazz, all over on my portrait monitor, so I can play on my landscape.....hell, even adding support to run 2 eve clients on the same character would be nice....or something. Is there any solution to this? I suppose worst case I go back to two landscapes....I just really hate my info displayed like that, I'd feel like I'm missing out on the scenery. For some reason portrait mode just keeps me focused on data.

Not possible with just one client.

There was an (CSM?) initiative a long while ago pushing for a change to make possible what you ask for, but it fizzled out.
