Is it possible to choose which display pygame uses for "full screen" mode?
If so, how is it done?

thanks!

SDL version 1.3 adds commands like SDL_GetNumVideoDisplays() and
SDL_SelectVideoDisplay()

SDL 1.3 is actually a testing version, and when it matures to a public
release, it will be renamed SDL 2.0. After that point, maybe pygame will
migrate to it (and correct me if I am wrong, but I think somebody is
already working on this, right?)


Thanks James. Not exactly the news I was hoping for. :( I'm working on a glass cockpit display called RJGlass that's written in Python and uses both pygame and PyOpenGL. I'm going to use it in a cockpit project I'm working on, but I need to make it run on a 7" LCD panel I've got connected to a USB VGA adapter.

Is there a bleeding-edge version of pygame that is available and uses the SDL 1.3 libraries? I don't know if it matters, but I'm using Windows for this.

Thanks again for you reply.
