Hi all GEM & PD users,
I have a couple of GEM related questions:
Is it so that the gemwin only can be maximized on the primary display ?
If I have my second display on svideo out at 800 600 and send the message: 'offset -800 0, border 0, dimen 800 600' the gemwin fills my tvset nicely, but if I set the gemwin at a lower resolution and send a 'fullscreen 1' instead, the resolution on my primary monitor is changed and the gemwin ends up there instead.
Is there som other way to use different 'render' and 'display' resolutions in GEM ?
Another question Is if the dimen of the gemwin influences the render resolution in video processing with the pix_ objects ?
All the best /

What platform are you using? The answers rely on that info.

No, not at all. The scaling of the pix_ objects output via pix_texture + geo is done entirely in hardware using OpenGL.

hi list,
i need help with installing gem on osx i downloaded the g4 version (Gem.pd_darwin) but i'm not sure what to do next. (do a ./configure make in terminal or whatever), i cannot find any docu on this. many greetings,

well, "fullscreen" (as i have written it, so it might be linux (and windows) only) only affects the primary display. "fullscreen" will ignore the "offset" and "border" message, and will try to set the resolution of your display to the resolution provided with "dimen" (default: 500x500). if it fails to do so, it should use the current resolution instead. Since "800x600" is a common resolution supported by most (if not all svga-compatible) hardware, your primary display-resolution will be reset .
if you want fullscreen on you secondary display, just use the "offset, border, dimen" thing by now. you should be able to set the resolution of your 2 displays independantly via your graphics-card drivers (that is display-properties on windows and XF86Config on linux)
Is there som other way to use different 'render' and 'display' resolutions in GEM ?
i don't fully understand your question, but basically does it mean, to blow up a (say) "320x240" openGL-rendering (Gem-window) to (say) 1024x768-fullscreen (upsampling) ?
Another question Is if the dimen of the gemwin influences the render resolution in video processing with the pix_ objects ?
as chris has said, no.

Hi i am using GEM 087 cvs with the G4 optimisations, and i am interested in this thread. My question is similar my default window seems to be a 320x240 window. I would like to resize it so it defaults to a 1024x768 as well
can someone include a simple example or point to one that shows simple winow re-assignments for gemwin. i an controlling GEM from a second monitor as well

here's how I do it on osX:
[dimen 640 480< or [dimen 1024 768<, when sent to [gemwin], will tell gemwin that when it creates a window, use these "dimen"sions (instead of the default: 500x500, which is the same on any platform)...
[secondscreen 1< tells [gemwin] to try and create the window on an external monitor; [secondscreen 0< is default
...I am actively working on updating the help patches...

Thanks tig You rock The G4 movie mixer is just awesome.
