I can have 3 or 4 tabs of the forum open when I am doing work in the background. Can you not just have one screen, preferably big, subdivided as required for however many tabs you have open? Or is that what you already do? Me, I keep it simple, one screen and one tab at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 My desk, currently only one forum tab open, I have on average 2-3 windows open per screen. So left to right, the document with the as laid dimensions, middle the cad cable route plan I am updating, right the forum. Foreground, my Meccano models, snacks etc. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broads01 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I have two wide screens for work. I'm amazed how many people in the office can manage crouched over just a 15 inch lap top screen all day. I could never have the forum open whilst working though, I'd never get any work done. In fact it's rare for me to be on the forum on any computer, phone or tablet suits me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YnysMon Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I have two screens at work too. It makes the aspects of my my work where I’m having to compare or transfer data so much easier. Recently Ive switched from having a PC to a docked smallish laptop, but still linked via the dock to those screens The laptop is also a boon if I have work remotely for some reason, much easier than having to use a VPN with my own laptop. We have also recently had some training events where we have been asked to bring our laptops with us. (How’s that for thread drift!) 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
