dual screen options

hey everyone i am super new to roll 20 and like im sure you have seen alot of in the past month i am on hear now because of the covid19 lockdowns going on.that being said i am really enjoying the experiance so far and think there are alot of possibilities with the it. now my question is i run 2 monitors and was wondering if there is a was to set up my game that i could just have the map run on one monitor and have the chat window and player portraits run on my other monitor. i understand that this may not be 100% a roll 20 question but any help would be appreciated. thank you very much for your time.
You can "pop out" both the chat and character sheets.  Double click the chat tab and it will pop out to a window which can be drug to another screen.  When you open character sheets, they have a double page icon in the upper left corner, click that to pop them out.  With all of this being said, be aware that popped out character sheets may not be edited the way regular sheets can so you may need to reset the sheet by closing it down if it doesn't seem to be working right.  Also, when the chat is popped out, it is much harder to read the mouse over math formula of rolls, this may or may not bother you.

Also, with chat popped out, some things may require an extra click, one to activate the window, and the other to click an interface control.

You can also get more screen real estate with the judicious use of the Stylus extension. I recommend the following styles. Each has an install link, and install instructions are in the top of each thread. Tiny Tracker  -  [install] More Compact Macro Bar  -  [install] Inline Links on OGL Roll Templates  -  [install] Hide Roll20 Interface  -  [install] Add Rows to Map Tab  -  [install] More Compact Token Action Toolbar  -  [install] Default Roll Template Enhancement  -  [install] Tighter Sidebar Lists  -  [install] Zoom Slider Tweaks  -  [Install]
I will check those out thank you very much for the help
