Bascom IDE multiple screen ssupport ?

Hi all This is really question to Mark.
Is it possible to get such feature in next version of Bascom AVR IDE or as addon i don't mind pay for it.
After moving to Project type i have now 44 include files and over 4500 line of code I'm using two 24 inch monitors.
Have to look some times in to two or more *inc files at ones. To do it now i run two Bascom IDE at the same time which is not very comfortable.
Also simulator doesn't work if i have that many include files.
Best Regards
Pawel

but there is already support for multiple monitors.
In fact i use 2 monitors myself.
I have my setting to 'extend desktop' in windows so the 2 monitors form 1 big screen.

Did you use Window, Tile options of bascom ? Or do i miss a point?
Otherwise send an image with how you think it must look.

I increased number of files in simulator.

Hi Mark at first thank you very much for answer.
I have "extend display" set up in windows.
If i select full screen Bascom ide shows only on one monitor.
To stretch it i have to use window mode and manually drag it across two monitors.
Only help work in two monitor full screen mode strait after click.
Best Regards

so you mean, you want to use all of the extended space when you maximize window? it is not normal behavior i think. all apps i tried , including help, maximize to the current monitor.
let me know if that is what you mean.
