I would like to be able to emulate the functionality of the ‘Presenter Tools’ in MS Office. This requires the program to be able to detect and use an external/secondary monitor/projector.
Could somebody please point me in the right direction for achieving this.
I would like to use Java 1.5
Thankyou.
Through the GraphicsEnvironment class you can get information about the available screens on the computer. In the docs for GraphicsDevice there is a basic example showing how to get and use the screen information.
