I have 2 monitors that I use for coding and TheIDE really does not do a good job at accommodating this.

- Tool tips and popups show up on the first screen when I have the editor or assist++ editor on the second screen. This includes the code completion popups and the tool tips which show up on the edge of the first screen.
- There is no option to have multiple windows open; I would love to be able to have 2 files open, one in each window. Also,the window is limited to the size of 1 screen (though this may be some video option I can set and will continue to investigate).

I would love to see some improvements to accommodate multiple displays a little better.

Thanks.
