Dual Monitors

Does anyone using a Mac know how to stretch the Pulsar background across two monitors?.. I have dragged it around the "virtual Screens" thingy in the settings dialog, but it refuses to stretch to the next monitor. Any help would be greatfully appreciated - driving me nuts.

Well, I don´t use a mac, but maybe you´ve just chosen the wrong mode for your dual display setup. Check your settings.

What modes are you talking about?.. I use Pulsar as apposed to OS desktop mode... I can fill both screens by dragging in the "Virtual Screens" settings dialog, but when I close it of it doesn't fill the second monitor. I have both monitors set to the same resolution... any clues?

did ya click the little monitor icon above the virtual screen on the settings page? it toggles between mono and dually . . .

yeah, did all that. Thanks everyone, I'm sure I'm doing everything correctly, it just seems to be broken. clicking on the little dual monitors icon was the first thing I did - expected it to work from there. Then I read the manual and dragged out a virtual screen to cover both areas... still no joy after closing off the settings panel.. oh well.

can you get any other software to work accross both screens.

If you use OS mode, it is WAY easier to get both screens, but OS is real buggy in V3 right now . . .

Yup.. every other package I use that has windows or palettes can be dragged to the other monitor... even folders and hard drive icons within the OS itself.... it all works perfectly well.
I used OS mode once and NEVER again, as you say, it is VERY buggy and I had to edit the main config file to get my windows back LOL....
