RE: Hydravision problem?





Thank you!

I tried setting the two displays to the same
resolution and it worked! Then I added two -screen
options with the correct native resolutions and it
works perfectly! Very nice too.

Thank you all again.

On the primary display the refresh does not seem to work
correctly.
The window seems to have some smaller portion on the left hand side
that works correctly. The size seems to vary from a sliver on the left
barely visable to about half the xterm. I can't seem to tell
whats determining the size.
The part that does not refresh is black or white. Even the pointer
(which is a }{ symbol) seems to stop where the refresh stops.
Note that it will go up and down and you can still see part of it
on the edge of the refresh area.

Does Hydravision expose two separate displays in the Display control
panel, Advanced tab (i.e. numbered 1 and 2 in the dialog)? If so,
what is the orientation of these displays? relative to the one
you have defined as the "main" screen ("use this device as
primary monitor")? Can you click-and-drag both displays and report
the (x,y) coordinate of each one's upper-left corner (shows in
a balloon help window when you draw a monitor in the dialog)?
And are the X/Y pixel dimension of each monitor the same?


It looks like what's going on is the X/Y dimensions of the X root
window aren't matching the X/Y dimensions of the Win32 desktop for
some reason. The same thing happens if you use multiwindow
w/o the multiplemonitors option on a 2- or 3-head box...
