Detect multi- computer monitors environment and display controls?

Is there a way that Mathematica is able to identify and ID multiple monitors attached to a desktop computer? And how can I do to have Mathematica output a graphic to a separate notebook to a specific ID monitor?

I have a special dynamic graphic created with Manipulate[]. I will like to have the graphic displayed in one monitor other that the primary monitor with the code displayed. Even more, I need the controls in the primary display monitor but the manipulated graphic display in the second monitor environment.

Jose,

I don't know if there are any better approaches but I would move a window to where you want it, size it, and use the option inspector to figure out the location of the window ( the pixel location will extend beyond your primary monitor)

This old article might also help: redirect-of-mathematica-graphics-output-to-another-computer-screen

Regards,

OK.. Thanks but it is possible to strip the control s of the manipulate command on a separate notebook? I want to control the manipulate variables from one moitor and project the resulting graphic on a separate notebook.
