Screen Effects Programming Inconsistency

[Bill Reburn]

Hi Everyone,

My machines rarely have the spare time to get into a ScreenSaver mode, but
sometimes I like them to come up.

My Ti is always plugged into a 17"ASD CRT when it is at home. The problem
with this is that when a ScreenSaver comes on - it usually runs on both
monitors.. That makes sense, but we all know how processor intensive many of
these Savers are (Flurry or Euphoria for example) - running two of them at
the same time across two monitors kicks the fan to stage 2 in about 10
minutes - very annoying.

I was just about to ask if single monitor functionality can be programmed in
when I noticed that the Apple Savers (that come with our machines) only run
on the Ti display! All the others I have run on both (although very choppy),
except for Fluid which runs on the larger display only..

I expect the programmers who make these mostly run on towers or never use a
second monitor. 

Is that level of coding beyond the reach of someone not working at Apple?
