Steve.
If you are running two EDS's, do yourself a favour and get a
second monitor for your rig. (the bigger the better..)
A 22" widescreen will do nicely, as you can see all 16 channels
of the submix, plus a few aux's, without scrolling.
Or pick up a 19" CRT (often found
on the kerb these days..) and run it at 1600x1200.

Can't run 2 monitors. All the slots are taken up w/EDS cards, but I do have
a 19" and visual is good. Moreso need the configuration correct.

I'm not familiar with macs, but any recent low rent graphics
card has two outputs. Can't you swap the existing card with
one of these?
If not, your only option is to toggle between mixers by bringing
up the project window, (press "p"), and click on the "M" button
corresponding to the submix you wish to view.
Unfortunately the Paris windows are fixed in size, due to the
fact that they are "hand drawn" bitmaps. You cannot shrink
them in size like you can with most other applications,
you can only increase screen resolution to allow more info to
be displayed.
Therefore, I cannot see how you can view 24 channels on one
monitor unless you use the Mini Mixer, as suggested by another
poster.

The only solution is to increase your desktop size, or reduce the
number of visible channels in each submix if you wish to see more
than one submix.

.....Having said that, you COULD concievably set up two mixer
views, one above the other, by minimising what is shown in each
submix.
I.E. get rid of the faders, aux sends, and/or inserts.
Set up a view that only shows what you need, and see if it will
fit on half the screen.
Then do the same for the second submix, and arrange the two, one above the
other.
Maybe I'm missing the point of your post, as I just jumped
into this thread without checking the last few days.
Good Luck
