  • Screensets / multiple monitors / Video display: best practices?

Hello fellow Sonarites.
 
Ok... somewhat a dumb question... In the last 18 months or so I've always worked in Sonar using only my lappy's monitor (instead of my previous dual-screen setup...)
 
Just now I just connected a 2nd monitor to be used mainly for video playback. I just realized that, when switching screensets, it impacted that display as well...
 
What's the best way to tell sonar to "ignore" this monitor when switching screensets? In preferences, I did not find an option to use a specific monitor as video playback... or should I just look for a settings in Win10?
 
Thanks in advance!

Could you elaborate?
 
What does "it impacted that display as well..." mean?

Meaning every time i'm switching screensets, the movie windows flickers / disappear for 1-2 seconds (even if I am activating the video view for the screensets I am switching between...)
 
That also could me that, if I wanted the video window to show up in all screensets, I would have to add it to each manually...
 
There's got to be a better way. I must be missing something obvious.
