Three forms side by side

[goju]

Is there a way to display 3 forms each Full HD size on three monitors connected to one PC.


The monitors will stand next to each other horizontally.

I am able to move one form with move function, but the next one cannot - I exceed the size of an integer when I try to use the move function.

Is there any way to solve this problem?

all forms must be inside access.
unless you can stretch access across all 3 monitors, then no.

if your access app is split , then you could open 3 copies and show 1 form on each monitor.

I presume your forms are popup? If so, this link provides a solution

Edit:

move and movesize have variant parameters which will cover any number up to a decimal size which should be way bigger than you need. So implies you have dimmed variables as integers. However issues as indicated in the above link says simply moving a form may not be sufficient

integers are often used for moving/resizing controls around a form since the maximum width of the form is 32767 twips=approx 22.75 inches - but less a bit for scrollbars, borders etc for the purposes of sizing/placing controls

Have done so with 2 monitors but not 3. You just drag windows from the primary monitor to the other monitor(s)?
However, AFAIK, moveSize method should cause a form to open on another monitor as long as the move values are correct. That is, if personA has app in center and move method puts form on left monitor, this won't work for personB who has the app on the left monitor. You'd need a table of preferences for each user or use form close event to store the form position in a table so that it opens where it was last closed. Using a table in the front end means user loses their settings when you replace the fe. Putting it in a be table means you need still need to link the settings to the user.
