Harry Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Hello Board, Is there a way i can open 3 new windows (for example) and script them to different monitors? If I had a 3 head card with 3 monitors, can I put one window in each and build a video wall with timed scripts changing content? I have opened new windows and placed them at positions on a screen, at a certain size. Is this the only way to try something like this? If my desktop is one across the monitors, i could just place them where i need their corners and size to suit. What does everyone think? H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitch Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 FileMaker has script steps that allow you to move and resize windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Yes, thank you. I was wondering if this is the way to go when addressing multiple headed systems or if there is another method to explore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitch Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Are you wanting something like kiosk mode? I don't know if that supports multiple monitors, but I suspect it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 It doesn't have to be kiosk mode, no. I'm not overly familiar with kiosk mode - but we could/would run a FMP13 installation with minimal menus. I will have a look at kiosk mode usage.

Fitch Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 You could also try running multiple copies of FileMaker. Works best on Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 Like 3 different authorisation coded installations for 3 monitors on one machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitch Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yes, or even three runtimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
