Just make new window of the size you desire (and at position 0,0) but never make it visible. That way, you also don't need to rely on any OpenGL extensions.

Making a new (offscreen) window is not a real option for offscreen rendering, as it still locks you to graphical sessions (or root sessions). A pbuffer-backed CGL context will not trip the window server. Without going into details (until Friday), Leopard has some improvements there as well. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
