There actually is some support for multiple monitors in Glyphs. For instance, open the Font Info window and drag it to your second monitor. You can leave it open while you work on your font in your main monitor. This isn’t a big deal, but it does mean that if you are working on font info and want to check something in the font, you don’t have to close the info window, manipulate the main window and then reopen the info window. You can just leave the info window open, click on the main window and it becomes active. You can find what you want and return to the info window without opening and closing windows…saves a little time.

I just signed up to the forum to request this feature. My use-case: I use an iPad as an external monitor so I can use my apple pencil to draw. I would like to be able to see sample texts on my monitor while I change the details of a glyph on my iPad.

You can use the Text preview panel for that.
