CopyWindow to pyhsical screens

Is it possible to copy a window to another physical screen? Using CopyWindow the window seems to appear only on the "active" monitor. -- Best Regards, Peter Kasza http://www.iit.uni-miskolc.hu/~kasza1 mr.schyte@gmail.com () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments

No; the X server can only display it in one place at a time. Getting around this requires intercepting window drawing and duplicating it somewhere else (that is, you'd need a custom compositor to do it, the window manager cannot). -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
