Possible to run two full isboxer character sets at once?

After getting hold of a bunch of new alts I now have the need to be able to run several different isboxer groups at once...
for example..

window set A
1) Char in titan
2) Main char
3) Bait alt 1
4) Bait alt 2
5) Bait alt 3

Window Set B
15X Combat alts. in battleships or whatever else.

essentially what i want to try and do is whenever I am looking at the bait alt windows I can see the 3 places I am watching all at once while also keeping eyeball on my main and the titan im bridging with, at this moment I don't need to actually see the 15 alts so they would be in a different separate set behind the windows im paying attention to untill I need them.
In the event I find a target I light the cyno and bridge then switch to the 15 alts (which then go on top of the bait alt,titan,main window set) to make the kill.

I have already tried running two different character sets at once but that simply borked the first set when i tried to fire up the seond...
Is there a way of being able to do this without having to put them all on a single set? (or running it all in one set while being able to carry out the above?)
I have only a single screen and need to optimize the visibility of my baiting chars etc when theyre not focused since i keep almost losing them :S

Cheers.

Re: Possible to run two full isboxer character sets at once?

You can only run one Character Set at a time on your PC.

FAQ: How do I broadcast only to certain windows, and leave out others? will cover the broadcasting portion of what you're asking for.

Then it'll be about your Window Layout, and possibly dynamically making changes to it during gameplay. You can set up a Mapped Key with Window Style Actions to change the Window Layout as it is applied to any given Window, which will let you adjust the Always On Top setting to pull different windows on top for example. Then use Window State Actions to apply the style changes (e.g. to apply the background style so the windows go to their new Home Region etc).

Thanks alot. What ill most likely do then is wait till im in a position to add additional screens to my pc then build up a custom window layout to better suit my needs and optimize performance.
Thats gonna mean hours and hours of building custom broadcast settings and video feeds! headaches ahead!
