for multi-screen project, a parameter for setting up the screen in all navigation function would be great.

Doesn’t Ignition already have this?

For example the following code opens Window 2 and passes the value “myvalue” to the “config” property on the root container.

```auto
system.nav.swapTo("Main Windows/Window 2", {"config":"myvalue"})
```

You just need to create the custom property on each root container of each window. Then you can dynamically configure each window based on the value that is passed in when opening or swapping to a window.

I misspoke.  
What I need is the management of multiple monitors with a single Vision client.  
ie a feature to assign a windows to a monitor, and another windows from the same project to another monitor…
