Editing Presentations on Multiple Monitors?

[Guest]

Hi. Does anyone know how, in a Multiple Monitors environment, users can edit
one slide set on one monitor, and another in a completely separate window on
another monitor?

The use case is -- users often wish to copy from, or refer to, many other
decks while creating a presentation. (often many more than can fit in one
MDI frame)

Even with Office 2003, PowerPoint in edit mode still seems to be an MDI
application while editing slides, i.e. one big window on one screen only.
Word, Excel, Outlook and others all seem to do this well. What am I missing
here?

Thanks,
Bob

There are some NVIDIA and ATI advanced settings to do this for you. Besides
that, the basic idea is to drag the PowerPoint window across both screens
which provides enough space to have multiple files open at a good size to
work with.

This may help a bit "dirty" but it works here
