Floating Views and Dual Monitor Support

SONAR supports dual monitors and allows you to float most of your views to a second monitor giving
you more options when working and increasing the number of views that you can have open at one time.
Important: Dual monitor support requires that you have a video card that supports dual monitors.
Follow your hardware manufacturers instructions for using dual monitors.
You can float views in SONAR without having a second monitor. Floating a view allows you to move it
out of SONAR, over the SONAR toolbars and menus for example, giving you added flexibility when
using SONAR with other applications. All views except the Track view can be floated.
