    [Dev] UI ~ Option to detach chat/game log to second monitor

    I realise this is something that is likely only achievable in 2.0, but i have not seen any discussion on the matter yet, so i'd like to see what the future of this idea might be.

    The chat/game log takes up a lot of space on the screen if it is sized to bother reading, which i'm sure people like to do. For PC users with a multiple monitor set-up such as myself, it would be wonderful to detach this log onto the second monitor and free up all of that space on the main game monitor.

    I too would love this option if it would be possible at all.

    Yeah, i just don't have it set to transparent. I find the backgrounds make the text harder to read, so the log is mostly a full black background. It's not taking up half my screen or anything, but it's big enough to keep track of things (got it at 7 lines deep and about half the screen wide). It would be nice to be able to read that and free up my visual of the game background at the same time.
