MultiView™
Catalyst 8.1 introduces MultiView™ support. This feature provides for hardware accelerated OpenGL rendering across multiple graphics adapters. MultiView™ will provide hardware accelerated 3D rendering in a system containing multiple graphics cards on an extended desktop arrangement. This feature will allow for the rendering performance and additional frame buffer resources to be evenly shared with the second and third graphics adapters. This allows for a 3D applica- tion to have the same performance running on a secondary or third display device as if it were running on the primary display device. This feature will be supported under Windows XP (32 and 64 bit versions), Windows Vista (32 and 64 bit ver- sions), and the Linux operating system.
Hi Drivefast!
I am using SW with two monitors, but organize it with sw not running in fullscreen. I have the SW-window spanning from the middle of my left screen and the whole right screen. all my toolbars I have moved outside the sw-window, on the upper left quadrant of my left screen, and the design library on the bottom left quadrant of left screen. This makes the whole area of the right screen available for my sw- graphic, and my left screen for feature tree and tools. Works wery nicely for me, so please try it out
BTW, if you have a Quadro, be sure to set it to "Multimonitor performance" mode, else the videocard will only provide one screen with hardware acceleration, instead of both.
