Full-screen with two screens in ruby-processing on linux

in Processing with Other Languages • 2 years ago

I'm trying to use full screen for ruby processing on linux. Running full screen avoids a bug that crashes all rp5 applications. I'm using full_screen => true as in this example: http://learning-ruby-processing.blogspot.com/2009/09/more-complicated-sierpinski.html

However, because I have two monitors the sketch appears centred between the two and only one of the screens is "full screened." This means any graphics are centred in the middle of my two screens and nothing is shown on the right screen, just the left where I can see just the left part of the sketch.

Has anybody done this before? I've been googling for a long time but can't find any suggestions.

Thank you.

AFAIK it is only opengl ruby-processing sketches that need to be run in full-screen (to avoid the bug on linux resizing of the screen). Interestingly the bug does not occur running opengl sketches with either processing.py or vanilla processing on linux.

As for two the two screen issue, I suspect this may might a more general thing when running opengl sketches on linux?

have you tried going one pixel less than fullscreen? that's a common solution to nvidia issues with fullscreen and opengl...
