Graphics window (only) on a seperate monitor.

[Tingsryd]

I would like to have all the border bars, resource windows and the ribbon on one monitor and just the graphics window on another monitor. I have looked all over the place for options but the border bars are still docked in the main window with the graphics window. It's close to what I need but not good enough.

Any tips how to separate the rest?

Starting with NX 10.0 you're now able to undock (just right-click on the empty area at the top of the NX ribbon and select the 'Undock Ribbon' item) the entire Ribbon as a single object which can then be moved to a separate monitor. Also, you can select the 'gear' icon at the top of the Resource Bar and you should find and option that will move the Resource Bar and all of the Navigator Panels to the second monitor. These two actions will free-up most of the space on the main NX window for the Display area.

I am able to get that far but I still cannot un-dock the border bars.

Border Bars are fixed, but they can be turned off. Besides, I only said that this would "...free-up most of the space...".

Well, I have minimal application specific items on the top bar and I don't any other bars so it's not a huge deal; I was just curious. Thankfully the ribbon and resource items can be moved. We are gradually upgrading our users to three monitors from two and it is nice to have options.
