Is there a way to enable the SL screen to stretch over both screens or at least be able to move the controlers and window off to the next screen for the best view.

what you're asking is not a function of sl. it's a function of the video card.

what kind of video card do you have?

i have an ATI dual output card and it's software controller (called "catalyst";) enables me to set up 2 monitors as clones or as extended desktops.

Being able to run multiple screens and have inventory, map, minimap, chat, friend, im's, search, build ui, & other on other is something SL cant do, id love if it could do that since they take up alot of space , dragable over to other screen or outside from the box would been nice addition.
