Question about auto follow and screen layout

So i'm pretty new to ISBoxer, i've only been using it for a few months, and still don't understand 90% of it. After hours on end trying to setup the basic setup, I finally learned about source/viewer and that's what i use for boxing my 6 man crew. I drive with my monk and just have hotkeys setup on my the bars of my toons and just spam click things i want to happen (follow, invites, assists, targets, spells).

So i've been avoiding going to dungeons because I find it way to difficult to navigate through them, and end up just getting myself killed over and over again. So i have a couple questions that may help me with this.

1. Is there a way to make the distance that /follow closer than standard? The standard distance is pretty long and tends to have toons get stuck when trying to make sharp turns in close areas. (if this is possible and it requires building and creating things please try to explain in as much detail as this stuff really confuses me enough to where I don't even explore out side of the quick start wizard guide)
2. This is about screen layout - I run 2 monitors, and 6 toons. Is there a way to make toons 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 display on monitor 1, and toon 2 display on monitor 2? I wasn't able to find any of the layouts that allow this.

oh and btw this is for Everquest.

Thank you,
Finchy

Re: Question about auto follow and screen layout

There's no way to adjust the follow distance. Auto-follow is like driving a Semi - make wide turns, move your main beyond corners and obstacles so the followers stop in the opening, then back the main up.

Stop at all railroad tracks ...

The Window Layout Wizard, or the WIndow Layouts available in the Quick Setup Wizard, are basic designs that get you started. For anything more fancy, then you can create your own Window Layout.
It is sometimes easier to create a Window Layout via the Wizard that is close to what you want, and then go down to the Window Layouts node, select your newly created Window Layout, then select the Regions node (in the lower left), and then edit the regions in the lower right. You can move things around, set different swap groups (controls which windows swap with which), whether a Window will swap, different sizes, always on top, which slot is homed in which window, etc.
