Description Erwann Chenede 2001-02-01 16:21:08 UTC
This enhancement intends to enable multiple screen and display support
for gdk/gtk on X.
Once implemented, an single app will be able to display widgets on
different screen and display.

This enhancement will not modify the existing APIs,
it will only augment the APIs by adding new API function where you'll
be able to specify a screen (and therefore a display).

Need at least minimal hooks stuff for API freeze.
Comment 2 Owen Taylor 2001-09-18 23:25:15 UTC
Fixes have been added so that we can now do multihead support
in a binary compatible fashion past 2.0.0
Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2002-05-02 08:03:57 UTC
Should we close this now, Erwann ? 
Comment 4 Erwann Chenede 2002-05-02 10:27:22 UTC
Indeed, matthias :)
