Yes, in that case don't use the "fullscreen" message. Use "dimen X Y" and "offset X Y", giving it the dimensions of your second screen, and the offset to the left or right of where your second screen is located. Look at the [pd window properties] subpatch of the [gemwin] help file for details on other kinds of messages you can use.

I've been looking into something similar. If I'm using a projector alongside a laptop (on 9.04) is it possible to put Gem full screen on the second screen?

I guess you don't have the option of a second monitor for your
[gemwin]?
I noticed that [key] doesn't work when the [gemwin] is fullscreen, but if you use [gemkeyname] or [gemkeyboard] you can trigger a "destroy" message to the [gemwin].
You can combine messages and use a [t b b] so that first "bang" sends the "0, destroy" message to [gemwin] and the second "bang" sends a message like "dimen 320 240, create, 1".
Best, D.

Dear friends of Pd, my be this is a very stupid question.- I?m working on an installation work and the GEM window should run in fullscreen mode. A beamer is connected to my PC VGA.- How do I switch from fullscreen back to my Pd patch? I`m on Ubuntu 9.04.-
