Hi List,

I was wondering why Gem has a camera AND the perspec/view messages to gemwin. Isn't it redundant?

I don't know camera, is it the viewpoint ? This viewpoint is defined by the view (position, view point/azimut, etc.) and the frustum (in GEM the perspec) witch defined an area (volume) in which things are visible. So i don't know if it is redundant ;)

Afaik even with both methods it's not possible to render two perspectives in a split screen or texture a second view on a geo.

This should be possible but it depends on the type of performance you want... You can use [gemframebuffer] with [pix_snap] and [pix_share].

Since the multiple gemwin branch seems dead i am looking for a different solution, the only option which comes to my mind is to open two pd/Gem instances and have two times the same patch open with a different camera/perspec/view. Is that right? Or am I missing something?

Yep, maybe, if you don't want a high performance, see the solution above. With [gemframebuffer], you can manage the viewpoint and frustum, then capture it with [pix_snap] and share this capture with an other pd instance (then gem window) with [pix_share_write/read]. ++
