Can you float the track view?
I've never tried using screen sets with 2 screens before. I have a new touch screen and I would like to have a screen set with PRV on the touch screen and Track View on the main monitor, and another with PRV on the main monitor and Track View on the touch screen. I'm bugged by not being able to float the Track View. The floated windows seem to be setable within the screen sets, but I can't seem to figure out how to get Track View to float on the Touch then zip back to the non-touch. Thoughts?

Haha... I'm sitting here with Sonar X1 Power on my lap trying to figure it out! Guess no luck, huh. Bummer!! So, just to be clear, if I want to use track view on the touch screen, I have to maximize the application (or have the actual application window) on the touch screen. All the floating windows float relative to that window, so it should stay static. I can float other windows like PRV or Matrix View on my non-touch monitor and still be able to see the Track view. If I want PRV Maximized on the touch monitor, then I will not be able to see Track View on the other monitor unless I manually re-organize my screens, messing up all my screen sets in the process. That's my understanding. Do you agree, Scott? Thanks for your help, btw.

Interesting idea to stretch it across multiple monitors.... The thing is that my monitors aren't both touch. Only one is a touch screen. So I was wanting to use screen sets to flip different parts of the workspace onto the touch screen. Making Track view static kinda messes this up. So, imagine this... If the track view is stretched across two monitors and one is touch and the other isn't, then only the part of the track view on the monitor that is touch could be manipulated with touch. This means that either the right half or the left half of track view could be touch, but not both. I'm going to have to play with it. I'm having some success using the windows key with the arrow keys. This enables me to quickly move track view to the touch monitor Starting with track view on left monitor (non touch) and prv on right monitor (touch) and the application focus on the track view while holding down the windows key click right arrow twice and up arrow once, release windows key and use ctrl+tab to set focus on the PRV which is over top of Track View now, then windows key + down arrow twice to minimize the piano roll view. To shift it back, windows key and left, left, up arrows. Then to restore PRV, ctrl+tab and windows key up, up arrows.

There was another thread that Noel or someone stated that the touch screen needed to be the primary screen, which is a microsoft convention - or law or whatever. On my two nontouch screens, I "float" the dock and put it on my second screen and it becomes a catch-all for everything but the track screen. I would love to have a touch screen set up there for the synths and effects and console touching. @

It is incorrect that the touch screen has to be the primary. Mine is set up as secondary.

I'm using Sonar on my touchscreen only and using screen sets to switch between views. I use my other monitor for my audio interface GUI. I thought about purchasing a full screen spectrum analyzer but they're too expensive just for something cool to keep my 2nd monitor busy.

Screen sets definitely work. i was trying to use both monitors for Sonar and be able to move track view from non touch screen to touch and back using screen sets. this is not currently possible.

Cool to know about the secondary. Once they drop in price I'll be asking questions. @

I submitted a feature request to make the track view float-able
