I have two monitors, but P4 can't use them (well, it CAN, but I have to whistle up the P2 interface) Does PP support two screens? P5? Wouldn't mind upgrading to 5 for OS X support, but Dual monitor capable would seal the deal.

I use P5 on two monitors in a Windows enviroment, but I caught the OS X mention. Can't say for sure on a Mac. - Noel

I was using P5 under OSX on a dual monitor setup (2/19in at 1280x1024) and it worked just fine, except that the Poser interface could be streched across only about half the second monitor. When one of the monitors died a couple of months ago, I went to a 20in LCD and am running P5 at 1600x1200 pixals.

I am not sure about Mac's either, I haven't used them for 10 yrs. But both P4 and P5 works fine in a dual monitor environment. I think the Dual monitor setup is more OS dependent rather than application dependent. Here's a screen shot of both P4 and P5 stretched across both monitors:

Anyone know how to get P5 to start in dual monitor mode? Every time I start/ restart Poser, is maximized on my main monitor....what a PITA!

Can I have some hints as to which graphics cards would support dual monitor plug-ins that are good for Poser?

I have an on-board right now with hp pavilion - using windows xp home.

Thanks :)
