Dual graphics cards output

Hello,

in my image viewer "HottiesView", I would like the application to detect and to output to the user desired screen, 1 of the 2 available.

Any help how to achieve this? Thanks

user desired screen These

user desired screen

These three words already answer your question completely:

1. let the user choose a screen mode on the desired monitor (use ASL_ScreenModeRequest). The two graphics cards have different mode IDs even if they are of the same brand.
2. use OpenScreenTags with SA_DisplayID
3. use the screen pointer from OpenScreen with WA_CustomScreen for all your windows.

@thomas Thank you very

@thomas

Thank you very much!

So far I am using IGraphics->BestModeID() after the user has via Shell inputted a desired screen width and height.
