Can viewing section of interface be sent to another computer monitor?

I doubt it but is it possible to isolate the viewing section of the FCPX interface and send it to another computer monitor , this is possible in DAW's(digital audio workstations) where you can have your mix window on a different monitor to the track window. The reason I ask as it may be handy when color correcting, grading etc so as to get a better view of your corrections.

Maybe what you mean is something like a Matrox video converter I/o device.
I've used the MXO2 with FCP 7 for a long while. I use a seperate calibrated monitor to view video.
Sadly, Matrox has been very slow in releasing driver updates to make their I/o device work with FCP X.1 and OS 10.9 Mavericks.

Check out Blackmagics offerings. I know there are others that use their stuff.
FWIW, I believe that Matrox should be releasing updates of their drivers anytime now(so they say).
I've been very happy with Matrox products, their driver support lags behind though.

I use both Blackmagic and AJA products, and have been very happy with both for many years. These are all usually for broadcast monitoring.
If you only want to use a standard computer monitor you have plugged in to your existing GPU, you can specify FCPX show the Viewer on a second monitor in either the View or Windows menus. I forget which.
