The idea of the monitors...

Hello. I have always had a desire to play in the EVE on multiple monitors. As a result I've got an idea, why not implement the support of at least 2 monitors? In this сучае 1 monitor (main) to display to directly ship and objectives, and the second would serve as a sort of pad on which was displayed to the rest of the information (chat, overview, etc. ). This could help to reduce flicker on the lcd monitor and extend the borders of overview does not reduce the scope.
P.S. I apologize for my language.

Ummm.... I do this all the time. When the client is open, press escape, and then change your screen size to 3840x1080. Then change your camera center to be 50% left or right, which centers your ship on one of the screens. Then, just drag your windows over to the other screen. It's nice to have all the space, I'm currently running 2-23" monitors. Love it!

As the above poster said, you can already do that. Or you can do something similar to what I do and run Eve in Fixed Windowed mode on one screen and then use the other screen for EFT / EVEMon / Excel / etc (turns out that that's a lot of "E"s, lol).
