Hi,

Is it possible to use Jambi as an application that utilizes two screens in 
fullsize ?

Yes, of course, unless I misunderstand you :-) Maximize will not expand 
beyond the primary screen of the window, since this does not usually 
make sense. You can, however, get the available virtual geometry on the 
system by getting the desktop widget:

    
http://doc.trolltech.com/qtjambi-1.0/com/trolltech/qt/gui/QApplication.html#desktop()

then get the available geometry from there:

    
http://doc.trolltech.com/qtjambi-1.0/com/trolltech/qt/gui/QDesktopWidget.html#availableGeometry()

and then set the geometry of the widget. Or you can of course also move 
and resize windows by hand to expand beyond the edge of a single screen.

Did this answer the question, or did you mean something else?

Hi,

QApplication.desktop() was the one I was looking for :)
