spanning two displays (1 video card)



I realize this topic has come up before, but I would like a little
clarification. Is it possible to have a QCview that spans two screens
in full screen mode, even when they're driven by the same video card?
I have been playing with this and can't figure out how to make it
happen. It seems there is no way to set the drawing rect larger than
the screen you want full. IE, you can't just extend the rect size. Is
this right? Is there some other way to do it?

From this thread,
http://lists.apple.com/archives/quartzcomposer-dev/2005/Oct/msg00090.html,
I see that a solution is to make a window larger than the screens, and
not run it in full screen mode at all. So theoretically, I could have
a third display where my menubar/dock would be, on a diff. video card,
and then the other video card running my two screens, in quasi
fullscreen mode. This is what Roger does with Quartonian. Is this
something that I can expect to work down the road? IE, if I build a
piece of infrastructure around this, is it going to come back to haunt
me?
