Gary-

Terry, as usual, has make some excellent points about "saving" projects
& what happens when you edit one vs the other. Most of the time I end
up making a copy of my current project & then open it to compare changes
I'm making, so I'm not actually looking at two copies of the same exact
project, but a copy of it. Glad Terry jumped in there to point out how
it works

I haven't found a need for the "Allow multiple monitors" option, I
don't know why it would be needed. Does anyone have some insight into
this?

Sorry - can't help with this one.

Gary-

I use two monitors- & just love it. I don't have TMG set for dual
monitors- but my system is. I open one project, and hit the "restore
down" button by the minimizer at the top right of my screen. This
allows me to drag the project to the second screen- where I can maximize
it. Then the next project- or copy of the same project is opened on my
main screen. Make sure you have a new back up before starting, and
decide the consequences of editing/changing one copy vs the other.

/Subject:/ Dual Monitors - Running two TMG projects at the same time

TMG Users,

Questions? How do you handle running two projects of the same project at
the same time. Do you then save both copies?, only one copy? I'm not
sure the best (and safest) way to handle this.

What if you are running two different projects at the same time?

Also can anyone tell me the advantages of choosing "Allow multiple
monitors". I have dual monitors but this option does not allow me to
move different parts of the screen to the other monitor.
