Turn On Multi-Monitor Components for a Salesforce Console in Salesforce Classic

Turn On Multi-Monitor Components for a Salesforce Console in Salesforce Classic

If a console is set up, multi-monitor components are turned on so that you can move portions of a console to different areas of your screens to help you work best.

Required Editions

User Permissions Needed
To turn on multi-monitor components: Customize Application

With multi-monitor components, you can pop out primary tabs or Open CTI SoftPhones from browsers and drag them across multiple monitors. You can also move the History component, Chats (but not the footer component), and any console components included in a console’s footer.

  1. From Setup, enter Apps in the Quick Find box, then select Apps.
  2. Select a console app.
  3. Click Edit.
  4. If multi-monitor components are turned off, click Enable Multi-Monitor Components.
  5. Click Save.
Note
Note Popped out items close and lose their positions on screen when you log out of Salesforce, click Setup, click a link to leave a console, or refresh or close browsers.
Tip
Tip To pop out components, you might need to update these settings in your browser: (1) allow popup windows; (2) set links to open in new windows, not tabs.
