NEW MAC's INSTALLED! The best thing about them is that I can project one image on the screen and have an entirely different image on the laptop screen.

I installed the mac prometh.software, things seemed fine; for regular flipcharts I could have the flipchart on the projector and whatever I wanted on the laptop display.

I sometimes use flipcharts, for quizzes mainly, but most of the time I use the desktop overlay flipchart (the transparent one).

No matter what I try, I can't seem to get the overlay flipchart to move over to the projector side of the display, it stays locked on the laptop window.

I don't want to give up the non-mirrored display mode of the mac, it is just too useful.

Any ideas?

Hey... currently it is not possible to do a Desktop Overlay on a seperate monitor (not that I have found). But it is possible to do a Desktop Overlay... First open a Desktop overlay on your notebook screen, then drag it over to the second window. That should work for now until Promethean can add that feature. Good luck...
