When rinning Revit on two or more monitors, does revit look like one big screen or can you put different project in each screen?
My boss is thinking about getting me four monitors.

I don't have any experience with multiple monitors in revit, but I would imagine the revit program would act however you have the monitor output set up. If you have the output set up to make 4 monitors into 1 large screen then it will be 1 big screen (maximized of course) Otherwise so long as your CPU can handle you can open as many instances of revit as you like and put one on each monitor if you'd like.
Correct me if i'm wrong. As I said, I have no experience with revit and multi monitors.. just multi monitor outpout in general.

It looks like one big screen, al you can do is minimize the program window and stretch it across. 4 monitors sounds like overkill ...

You can use more monitors, stretch revit to fit all monitors and open many projects you can, arrange windows-views on that 'big' screen manualy. It is very usefull to have open more views of one project, floor plans and 3D ... or section in same time, or more diferent projects or open Revit in one monitor and other monitor is something else, Acad or browser or TV ...

yes you can put different revit "views" on different monitor with the revit program open once. it is really handy having more real estate to work with. Good luck.

really be terrible.. if you think you need more
screen space just get a 21" monitor and set to
1152 by 864 and put your head back on the
head-rest and relax
of course everybody has a totally different
idea of everything if you know what i mean
