I tried to run my application that create stereoscopic view on dual monitors. Before the application is started, both the left and right monitors shows the correct screen (with window bars etc) - this shows that Dual Monitor display is working fine when there's no rendering of 3D scenes. The problem arises when I start my application. The scene is "rendered" only on the right monitor (2nd head) but not on the left monitor -a blank grey screen appears with the top window bar (1st head).

What could be the cause of this problem? Does the Wildcat VP card supports "dual monitor stereoscopic output"?

Previously, my application runs successfully on 3DLabs Oxygen Card.

Get the latest drivers and ask your support, those cards are expensive, so you deserve the chance of asking them.

Ik:
You have no chance to make it working even with latest drivers. The 2 ramdac ARE NOT genlocked ...
Even if you get stero flipping on both monitors
the flipping will be not in sync = no stereo.
We have done axtensive tests of this ...

Btw. does anybody know a method (code example) how to zoom a window to double monitor size ond Wildcat ?

I was tring trick like following one without succes:
GetScreenResolution(&scr_width,&scr_height);

SetWindowPos(ghApp,HWND_TOPMOST,0,0,scr_width*2,scr_height,SWP_SHOWWINDOW);

Intergraph sells dual screens stereo workstations using wildcat cards.

Yes. The Wildcatg 6xxx are genlockable ...
Wildcat 5xxx probably as well, I did not test it ... I was speaking abut the Wildcat VP only.
