Utilizing a 24"monitor and a 20" monitor

Is there a method via keyclone using those 2 monitors to be able to play the master on the 24" and have 4 the slaves display on the 20", BUT be able to swap of on the slaves into the 24" in case my master dies?
I'm having problem with stability on doing the 5 screens on one display. The swap/pip sometimes does not work and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

any suggestions?
PS.. I have access to a 3rd/4th monitor if need be, I just like the idea of being able to swap and use the larger display.


Thanx

Had the same problem. Such is the life of running multiple monitors and Keyclone. My swapping was very delayed and finnicky. So I added a 3rd monitor and ran the 4 slaves with 2 on each monitor (rotated 90 degrees).

Have you set up the pip option in your maximizer settings. being able to switch your alts to your main screen is what the maximizer is for. There is a slight delay. I don't use keyclone anymore but that is what you want to utilize.

I'm a bit new to multi-boxing and still trying to get things situated on binding the keys and setting up the macro's. Playing (leveling) 2 other classes I'm not that familiar isn't making it any easier :) I'm just boosting atm to get these guys to 60 so I can GaL to the 30's.

I thought I had it resolved by disabling the other screen and using the single monitor, but it happen there as well.

I have/use keyclone atm, but if anyone has any other suggestions, I'm all ears.
