Any chance at being able to use a mouse? I have a touch screen that I want to integrate into my next cab and would like to use the 2nd screen as a touch screen to switch between CP view, "moves lists" etc.
Which actually brings up another question..will HS support dual screen setups?
I am still working on that piece you asked for BBB..school has started and i've got 4 projects due already :(

I can add in multiple monitor support in the next build which is a couple days away, but I cant test it since I only have one monitor, so I will need feedback.
I already have mouse support but its still being worked on a little, mainly for trackball use. But as far as touch screen goes, that will be easy, maybe I can build in a couple buttons designable button options or you can make them invisible, so touching the top half of the screen will scroll games up or bottom half will scroll games down. I'll see about adding this in on the following release. A good place for buttons would be inside the wheel I think, but it will be custom placement if you want.

Dual monitor support sounds great.
Bill, I have a dual monitor setup so if you need testing just let me know.
(if you like to program, which I know you do, dual monitor is the way to go!!!)

Now you sound like my wife!, Hmmmm...I guess I should reconsider that new iPhone I was planning on purchasing. ;)

The button thing would be SWEET! Would there be a way to perhaps program what the "invisible" buttons do?
My dream:
I could be playing a game, and on the 2nd monitor, I have my theme for the game i'm playing, with a wheel that has selections such as: Controls, Instructions, special moves, etc. that is touch driven.
That would be as hot as some classic euro porn!

You probably wouldnt want the FE playing in the background while playing a game, it might slow some games down and the menu is only for games and genres, not all that other stuff you mentioned. So it would take alot of work to get it to do what your saying I guess. The buttons would be just for spinning the wheel and starting games.
