Hi, I have set up two monitors. I am using windows XP. I would like to keep one window- command line in one monitor and the script and graphs in the second monitor. How do I set it up? It works for word documents simply by dragging the document. It does not work if I drag and drop the scripts window. Is R not compatible for this? Thanks.

Try Edit --> Gui Preferences --> SDI and see if that works. Dan Viar Chesapeake, VA On Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 5:55 PM, Veerappa Chetty <chettyvk at gmail.com> wrote:> Hi, I have set up two monitors.

Hi: I use two monitors and I didn't have to do nothing to do what you want done. Try to print an R graph then drag it to the second screen. If that doesn't work, you may need to go to your settings and identify screen one and screen two from the dialog box. Good luck Felipe D.

Hello, I work with Windows XP and do what you are hoping to do. Instead of using the built in script dialogue editor I use TINN-R. I can drag either this editor or the R Console to different monitors. I often have to make sure that the TINN-R editor panel is not maximized as that will hide any graphics windows that I generate.
