Hi Robert,

Quick question about screen arrangement. As I understand it, 
WindowingSystemInterface currently has no way of reporting the 
arrangement of the screens (physically), so there is no real way to 
support, for example, a single view spread over 4 screens arranged in a 
2x2 square. Is that right?

If I read the code right, the only thing you do in 
setUpViewAcrossAllScreens is to add a horizontal translation to each 
screen (translate_x). Such a setup would require a translate_y as well.

Does that sound right? I guess to support 4 screens in such an 
arrangement, it would be up to the application to set it up correctly, 
having prior knowledge of the physical screen setup...

I'm battling this a bit right now, as I'm trying to get a very general 
system to set up viewports across screens, and I'm having a bit of 
trouble with this. It just seems each case I need to support is totally 
different, and as I see it, you can only go so far (only so many 
assumptions you can make) without knowing the actual physical screen 
arrangement. Any thoughts on this?

Thanks,

J-S
