<![CDATA[OSX TripleHead2go with 3 x vertical LCD screens]]>Hi,

I have dug around but am having trouble finding any guidelines, descriptions or instructions for using the Matrox TrippleHead2Go with vertical oriented displays.

Am I missing something; either in the matrox software or the Mac OS that will allow the rotation of the screens in system settings before the displays are assigned in Isadora?

I am trying to achieve a 1x3 layout but with LCD screens in a vertical/portrait orientation.

Best wishes

I'll log this (if I haven't already) and bring it to Mark's attention.

 It is easy enough to 'spin' the Projector actor output 90° but the bezel compensation feature will be good addition.

Hi Woland, 

That is looking very promising, but will it support  vertical/portrait oriented displays and bezel correction?

It seems like they have expanded the stage setup in V3 to allow for this, so I'm looking forward to that.

 :D

Thanks Craig,

Yes let’s hope the new release is feature rich when it comes to stage layouts.

SwitchResX

 Hi, yes I have and am considering the licensing fee (my trial period has run out), but I think it is more of an issue that Isadora does not configure TH2Go for portrait oriented screens. It is not difficult to rotate the stages in a patch  in v2.6.1.

max os display config there is a rotation option

 Yes the rotation option is there in the Display Preferences of Mac OS X  but I think the issue is that Isadora does not recognise the rotation and continues to attempt to configure Left, Mid and Right. So until Isadora stage set up has options for portrait/rotated displays there is no other way but to do the work within the patch.

Can anyone try, particularly without the matrix driver?
