Dual 19" Screens in Solidworks 2005
(OP)
Does anybody else have the same problem I'm having when I have SolidWORKS 2005, PDMWorks, and have E-Drawings open on dual nineteen monitors, it crash the other application I have open once I drag it over to my other nineteen ?
This problem only happens with Solidworks applications, I can use Pro-Engineer Wildfire 2.0 one nineteen and have Intralink on my other nineteen.

I had to enable OPEN GL to the second monitor with my Wildcat VP990 graphics card. When I first started to use the card it was not enabled. I would see fragmented bits of graphics (would not crash though)on the second monitor.

RE: Dual 19" Screens in Solidworks 2005
I'm having trouble working in SW2005 SP2 in dual screen mode, what are your settings? and do I need to enable something in SW?
I'm using a Quatro XGL 750, on the SW WEB site it says that it supports Dual Screen
I don't seem to be able to save my layout....
Thanks

Where do I get the "View notes section" that you mentionned....on this site or on the Solidworks Site?
What's the link?
Because I can't seem to find it....

Make your selections for Card, OS, etc & the View notes will be found at the RH side of the listing ... with the icons. When you click on the View notes hyperlink it opens a pop-up, which in turn takes you to

RE: Dual 19" Screens in Solidworks 2005
Thanks, that's exacly what I've seen in the past....so my card (Quadro 750 XGL) should be supported in Dual screen.
Do you know what they mean in the JPG when they say
"Also check to make sure the Solidworks Settings is set"
Is there something I need to enable in Solidworks or elsewhere to be able to use SW in dual screen???? this seems odd....
thx

RE: Dual 19" Screens in Solidworks 2005
However, I have had quite a few other glitches, one of which was only recently fixed in a service pack. The error was, when trying to fill out custom properties in the secondary monitor, the fields (from properties.txt) would not display and could not be filled out. My VAR only realized the problem (more the graphics card than anything, nVidia Quadro FX500) by accident weeks later.
I recommend checking to see what the latest certified driver for your card is, and then set the nView profile to CAD.
Good Luck!
