2 displays

I try to use vizard with 2 displays (monitor, the primary display, and a projector). When using the monitor (with option viz.fullscreen.monitor=1) everything runs normal. When I try the same for the projector (with option viz.fullscreen.monitor=2) I don't get the world diplayed but rather it remains with the WorldViz logo. What am I doing wrong?

Does the same thing happen when you run the following?

Code:

import viz



#Tell Vizard to go fullscreen on monitor 2

viz.setOption('viz.fullscreen.monitor',2)



#Create window

viz.go(viz.FULLSCREEN)



gallery = viz.add('gallery.ive')

If so, do you see any errors in the Vizard input/ouput window?

Does your projector require a different resolution or refresh rate?

What kind of graphics card do you have and have you installed the latest drivers?

If you have an nVidia card then try going into the nVidia control panel and set the Multi-display/mixed-GPU acceleration setting to Multiple display performance mode. This allows running the Vizard window on non-primary monitors/displays.

I have a nVidia. It works now, after changing to Multiple display performance mode. Thank you.

Another question: There is (still) no possiblity to have two main windows? E.g., one main window in fullscreen mode displayed via the projector and a second small one in a window on the usual computer monitor for monitoring what happens on the projector.
