Enable Multi-View when using Dual Monitor - Large Viewer

What problem do you see this solving?

On my dual-monitor setup I frequently need to compare several variants side by side.

The Multi-View feature (Shift+V) is available in the main window. It is not available in the "Dual Monitor - Large Viewer" window.

Eventually, what I am trying to achieve is: one 4k monitor in front of me exclusively dedicated to viewing the photo I'm working on, one side monitor (portrait orientation) dedicated to Menus, Browser and Tools.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

Every time I use the software, ever since a second monitor has been added to my setup.

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

I quickly switch between 2 variants back and forth to analyze the differences but the refresh time limits this workaround to two images only and it is not persistent.

    Theres a simple workaround. If you select the viewer window you can enable multi-view the same way (what ever shortcut you have defined). If you're familiar with creating macros you can take that even further and create a specific shortcut for each viewer window (shift+A / option+A).
