Dual monitor setup challenged

[kentwilkens]

Greetings

I have 2 27 inch monitors, setup in fsx as 3840 X 1080. Rather than giving me a wider view with the console in the middle, it stretches the plane console across most of the screen, with very little verticle view. Fsx allows me to add views, so one goes on virtual cockpit, resize it a bit higher, so I can actually see the gauges. Still not happy with the "view", if put in "cockpit" mode the gauges are stretched as if it's a 1920 screen.

Any ideas?

Assuming you are talking about the 2D cockpit, your only recourse is to resize the 2D panel itself to be in the correct proportions (it is a window with no borders). And obviously it won't fill the screen, but you could put it in the middle and have additinal view either side of it. If yuo do this, I think you also have to resize the outside view to fill the whole screen, otherwise it just fills the top half. I'd think you would be better off using the virtual cockpit, which will resize correctly for any display.
