Windows bigger than physical screen size

[Maarten Boekhold <boekhold at emirates dot net dot ae>]

Hi all,

I apologize if this has been asked before. I searched the mailing lists 
and web site, and didn't come up with anything.

I'm trying to use cygwin X with an application that sometimes opens big 
windows. Bigger than fits on my 1024x768 screen anyways. Cygwin X 
'truncates' these windows on the right and bottom of the screen, and the 
content of the truncated area can't be accessed.

If I use the same app with Exceed, Exceed allows me to 'scroll' the 
window. If the window has focus and I move the mouse cursor against the 
right side of the screen, the window content is scrolled to show the 
'hidden' content.

Is there any way to achieve the same with Cygwin X?

I'm using Cyginw X with the windows window manager, and I've tried to 
start the X server with a screen size bigger than my physical screen, to 
no avail.

Kind regards,

Maarten
