Tom, Dan:
Yes, of course one can set this all up manually. Keynote just seems to
use apple internal ability to know all this stuff, which Revolution may
not be able to access.
I work all day with my 17 G4 powerbook plugged into a 21 cinema

Here's what you can do:
You need to have a computer that can support a second monitor as an
extension of the computer's monitor. On the mac side, only the
professional line (PowerBook, G5 tower) has this function built in. You
cannot make this work with an iBook, an eMac or an

This approach assumes you have mirror imaging 'OFF' in order to have
two distinct screen areas. I don't know how (applescript, do process,

I agree especially since we are talking about Director and not so much
about Flash. A sidegrade targeted to the making a standalone
application side versus the making an animation side which can and
will be taken up by Flash.
The high selling point is that the move over does away with the
Oops I think I actually forgot to ask my question:
How do you do this in Revolution:
Keynote can output one window to the channel that goes out to the
projector -- video port. i.e. it shows on the screen. and the second
window is locked onto the personal PC's LCD screen, where the latter
