Dual-display

Can anyone point me to a mod that allows the user to extend the WoW user interface onto a second monitory? I want to build the ability into the default nUI 6 interface, but can't remember which mod it was that does that so I can see some example code.

I think this might at least help a little.

Not really. I already know how to do a viewport inside the viewable area (a la CT_Viewport or Sunn_Art). What I can't figure out is how to extend the viewable area onto my second monitor so that WoW uses both monitors instead of just one.

My goal is to add the ability for users to be able to place the WoW game space on one monitor and portions of the user interface on the second monitor.

Maybe try asking the guy who posted in this topic. Looks like he is doing what you hope to be able to do.

Not sure if it still works, but Duality looks like it was designed for what you are looking to do....maybe...

If you are looking for a way of pulling information from the UI into a seperate screen then Duality is perfect, if you are rather wanting to stretch the game environment across several monitors then a hardware solution is your fuel.
