1st off im not pc savy like i see most in here are so alot of the lingo you fellas use is lost on me but i have a question...

 

As i learn to fly here on dcs,is there a way to use 1 or 2 of my screens for the flying part and my 3 rd screen as a way to scroll through saved info to read and learn what im doin as i fly.

 

Say im flyin a10 training mission and a specific type of threat shows up but i dont remember what its fire range is,i would like to use the 3rd screen as a electronic book of sorts to read about the threats specs..

Well for what it is worth I use a cheap tablet for all that info including Teamspeak.

I didnt think team speak was in the a-10 training missions...

As for the cheap tablet i have an ipad i can use and a older blackberry tablet but i also have a 3 screen set up so figured i could just use that..

Yes you can just don't include one of the screens in your resolution settings. Example I have two monitors, both 1920x1080 which gives me a total resolution of 3840x1080. How ever if I want to puts notes or checklists on my second monitor, I just set DCS to the resolution of one monitor

1920x1080.

 

So lets say all of your monitors are the same, and you have them side by side (1-2-3), you would have a total resolution of 5760x1080. In this case you would not include the 3rd one for a resolution of 3840x1080. And you would be able to put or open what ever you like on the third one.

 

Hopes this helps
