SSIA. Is this possible in XP? I have two monitors, and it would be so helpful to display full windows of different blocks on each screen. Since by default siemens doesn't offer this option, I am asking if anyone knows...

Thanks ahead of time!
 
No there is only one window instance possible.
You can have several blocks open in this window, and of these two blocks can be online (with recent CPUs).
So the best you can do is to have a big monitor and maybe zoom out so that you can have as much open as possible in the same window.
 
what a bummer. Anyone have a workaround?

I have found that extending the window across two monitors will separate the blocks even better than I'd hoped however.
