Any intention of a digikam multi-minitor-mode?

Is there a way to run Digikam in 2- or multiple-display-mode? Like in this
way: Display 1 for picture editing, lighttable, slide show... and display 2
for Dashboard and Thumbnails.
For the panorama photographers, shifting on panoramic-mode would be ideal of
course.
(My idea is, that it would be the most flexible way to attach IDs to each part
of the digikams windows.
So everyone will be able to arrange his individual digikam desk.)

I can't find any documentation, how-to, ...
I'm an absolut newbie in this matter.

Maybe I'm searching the wrong way.

Re: Any intention of a digikam multi-minitor-mode?

I work with dual screen under Linux, and take panorama picture. digiKam work on both screen, as you have described. This is a reason why each digiKam tools use a separate window (LT, BQM, IE, ALBUMUI, IMPORTUI, etc...)

Re: Any intention of a digikam multi-minitor-mode?

Great!

Thank you!

That's exactly, what I'm looking for.

Where can I learn more about it?
Do I need a list of window names?
And which tool is needed?

You need... nothing. All work already as you need. Just move digiKam window on screen that you want.

Note : i use KDE desktop on my computer...

Hello,

as you didn't explicate in detail, i assume you using the KDE4 standard tool "Size & Orientation" at system preferences / Hardware / Display and Monitor (kRandR).

I've found a different tool, called kScreen. for OpenSuse-Users there is a rpm at http://software.opensuse.org/package/kscreen

Even as 1-Klick-Install.

Even it's still at beginning of developement, it's running very stable.
(Quick test with my notebook and a LCD-TV connected by VGA)

You can take a look at
