Topic: 2 Decks and 2 Monitors - how can I move 1 deck to Monitor 2?

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I have successfuly installed VDJ to recognize 2 DAC-2 Controllers and 4 Different Channels on my Video Card.

I cannot however move 1 of the VDJ Decks to Monitor 2. When I reduce the Deck, it will not allow me to drag it to a new location.

Does anyone have a suggestion for me?

Thanks in advance!

It's not possible to 'move' 1 deck to another monitor, both decks are on inseparable interface, so the only solution would be to create a skin which stretches on a 2× 1 monitor resolution in it's width, or use two instances on each monitor.

Regards.
 
He may mean instances, as I can not move either to the second monitor. Does it have anything to do with the skin i'm using?
 
Yes, I do mean 2 instances (1 per monitor). Some of the Skins allow moving the screen, some do not. I think that the SDK allows for moving a reduced screen by using the following feature:

The element
A grabzone define a zone that can be used to move the VirtualDJ's window if it is not maximized.
If no grabzone is defined, any zone that is not a defined element act as a grabzone.

The syntax of the grabzone element is .
The grabzone definitions are:

: Give the width and height of the grabzone
: Give the position of the grabzone on the screen
: Give the coordinate of the B&W graphic that should be used as a mask to decide if the mouse is over the grabzone
: Set a simple rect zone as a mouse mask
: Set a simple circle zone as a mouse mask


I will contact the author of the Titanium skin to see if this is the solution and to see if he will add it to the features of the skin.

If someone can confirm that I am on the right track, please let me know

Thanks,

Randy
 
I'm almost 1oo% sure that all skins have either grabzones (on atomixmp3 sign, VDj sign, top left corner, etc.) or you can move them by clicking anywhere but on the skin elements (such as display, fader, buttons, decks, etc.).
 
you could just enable your desktop for horizontol spanning and make a skin for it so the mixer isnt in the way, i was working on one but i have been extremely busy recently i wanted to do one with 3 monitors.
the horizontol spanning is what erxon was saying earlier
