Use multiple displays for a single app
Hi ! I'm willing to distribute a single processing application (3072x768) onto three different screens (three 1024x768 video projectors). I know I've already succeded in that a few years ago with two displays, using Processing 1.0 and some java commands, but it doesn't work now : maybe I didn't recall the right way to do it, I don't know. So here is my question : how can I do that, is it still possible ? My bigest issue is that I cannot perform tests, I send the application to someone 800 kilometers form my house and just wait for his tests...

Nobody has any hint or advice ?
There's code on the Wiki that covers this: http://wiki.processing.org
Or have a look at that great library:
@Reas : Of course I used that code but the person who I sent the program says it doesn't work. I guess I'll have to find a way to perform tests. @darius : thank you, it's a great library, but it needs one computer for each screen !
Damn ! I'm so sorry ! The technician who had to make run my app' was the problem, as he wasn't aware of how coutinuous multiple screens work, but I couldn't do anything but to wait for his tests until he figured it out all by himself. Now it works all right, using the usual code.
A last little problem is that processing loses the path to the dataFolder. I guess it is beacause of the " PApplet applet = new sketch_name();" line ? It does that only in "run" mode, not when I export an application, so it'll do fine.
What about exporting a sequence of images in full screen HD to a single secondary monitor? Would it be the same process?
@Ztietjen : I'm not sure to understand what you mean.
