I have a 4 monitor set up.
Which is more efficient ? open 4 incidence of MC? or one MC that stretches across 4 monitors?
Multi monitor with MC
how do we run 2 instances of MC with each running a different workspace ?
install MC into 2 diff directories ?
If so, it will still commit to the same database since database resides in common right ?
Or can we run each MC with a commandline line to specify which workspace to open ?
thanks

never mind, I have got the answer from another threads.
-- open a different MC for each monitor. This avoids any possible memory leak, video instability, etc.
-- make sure no 2 MC are accessing the same workspace
-- multi-core helps performance

It is recommended to just launch several instances of MultiCharts by clicking the shortcut severa times. No conflicts with database access, video memory sharing etc. have been reported, but of course, it helps to have a high performance system if on several screens more and more charts are open.
On the other hand, I've seen that some (unluckily, no exact list) multihead graphic adapters (from Matrox AFAIK and from more specialized trading video cards makers) are able to support stretching MultiCharts across monitors well.
