Hi lorem,
> If only I could move palettes on the second monitor......
Actually, it may be possible to set this up by using a dialog.
For an example, put this on a keyboard shortcut and trigger it:
script:moi.ui.createDialog( 'SidePane.htm' );
There are some complications, like the little sub-menus under Circles for example will only show up on the main Side pane, not on the floating one. But I think if you were to remove the main side pane (edit MainWindowLayout.xml) it would probably work in the floating one instead, I didn't try that though.
Also you would probably want to turn off the palette collapsing in this case, that should be possible by editing SidePaneTabs.js and just commenting out everything inside of the CompactPaletteHeaders() function.
You can also pass a second parameter to createDialog to set some different options:
script:moi.ui.createDialog( 'SidePane.htm', 'resizeable,defaultWidth:700,defaultHeight:500' );
You would probably want to set 'resizeable' since then the dialog won't change in size to fit to its contents when different pieces of the contents are hidden or shown.
By default the dialog will not open automatically, to do that you would need to put the createDialog() call into a .js file (remove the script: at the front for this one), and then modify the shortcut that you use to start MoI to pass the full path to the .js file (put "quotes" around it if it has any spaces in it) as a command line parameter to moi.exe and then it will run that script when it starts.
That may give you some more ideas to mess with! :)
