Child Window Control for Dual Monitors

[Pete]

I'd like to be able to allow my CAD program to allow its
child windows outside of the primary window, so that I
can drag a child window to my second monitor.

I'm using CAD software for 2d and 3d views, and it is
helpful to be able to see both at once. However, the
application (Chief Architect) keeps the child windows
within the main window, making the second monitor useless.

Any suggestions?

Sell the second monitor.

Contact the Chief Architect software programmer and ask them to do a
re-write.

And if you don't want to pay them to do that, try making the main window big
enough to cover both screens (not maximized - that will only use one monitor -
you will need to drag the edges of the window out). It's not quite what you
want, but it may be close.
