PLCnext Engineer fixed screen/window size

Hi,

I’m using multiple monitors and sometimes I want to have PLCnext Engineer on two monitors (or a tab page that I can pull out) so that I can review/work on two pages at full size of a monitor (for example).
I tried PLCnext Engineer 2026.0 LTS but that has it not build in yet. It would be a quality of life update.

On a side note.
The screen can be extended to its main display resolution.
Examples:

  • Main display 1920×1080 → Screen can extend up to 1920×1080
  • 2 1920×1080 displays next to eachother → Screen can extend up to 1920×1080
  • Main display 2560×1080 → Screen can extend up to 2560×1080
  • 2 1920×1080 monitors configured in graphics options as one monitor output of 3840×1080 → Screen can extend up to 3840×1080*

*(note that this needs to be configured everytime you plug into a new docking station, and it is glitchy when doing so with a docking station, only use case if you have a locked setup)

Hi Sharp_Stone,

Thank you for your suggestion. We have added this feature request to our roadmap. At the moment, we cannot yet confirm when it will be implemented, but it is being considered for future development.
