CessnaFlyer Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 hey guys after getting my butt kicked by a cold I am finally able to get flying again. but the problem I have right now is with fsx full screen and not windowed I lose plan-g. but with fasx windowed I have plan-g on the second screen. is there a way to have both with out having to be in windowed mode? giving up on flight simulation for good:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 there is a way to run fsx in a borderless window. No blue bar at the top. I don't use it myself. I found this: http://forum.mutleyshangar.com/index.php/topic/9008-fsx-or-p3d-borderless-in-windowed-mode/ You could set your taskbar to auto-hide, or make sure the taskbar is only on the screen that has plan-g on it perhaps. Sorry for being vague, it's intentional, I haven't used dual screens for a long time. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CessnaFlyer Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 ah ok. how do I do that? cause the second monitor only has my back ground picture and nothing else. maybe that's the problem? giving up on flight simulation for good:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 With the thing I linked you run fsx in windowed mode. Then you use the thing, to hide the blue bar at the top of the window. It then only has a very thin edge. Then you also hide the taskbar. The Window will take up almost the full screen then. As you are in windowed mode, plan g will be visible on the other screen.

CessnaFlyer Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 oh ok thank you sir. I wonder why FSX can't be full screen and still have plan-g with out this tool? giving up on flight simulation for good:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 In full screen mode fsx, the other screens go black. So no. But with this workaround the FSX window takes up the full screen. Without the other screens going black. Because you are using windowed mode. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
