Forum Topic - Wide Screen Monitor support under QNX Windows: (4 Items)
   
Wide Screen Monitor support under QNX Windows  
Hi:
  We are using QNX Product Suite 2009 with an older version of QNX Windows ( 4.20 Release B). We are primarly using ATI 
Radeon 7000 based PCI graphics cards using the QNX generic driver ( version 1.03). Radeon graphic cards include Diamond 
Stealth Radeon 7000 based card and ATI Radeon 9250 card. 
Our process control software product supports graphic resolutions of 1024 x 768,1280 x 1024 and 1600 x 1200 which are 
all 4;3 aspect ratios. 

We are getting requests from our customers for wide screen monitor support ( aspect ratios of 16:9/16:10 or 3:2). These 
ratios include resolutions of 1920 x 1200,1680 x 1050,1440 x 900 and 1920 x 1080.

My question is this:
Are there any QNX graphic drivers for QNX Windows that would support wide screen monitors of apsect ratios 16:9/16:10 or
 3:2) ?
If not are there any plans for updates to support this or is this something that we need to get a quote from QNX for ?
We would like to continue using the generic driver and would welcome modifications to this driver for wide screen 
support.
Also would wide screen support involve changes to QNX Windows ( Iedit ) etc ?

- Thanks,
   Kevin

RE: Wide Screen Monitor support under QNX Windows  
I'm investigating to see what might be possible...

It's not something that is currently supported, nor something we plan to
add to std product, so any possible solution would involve custom
engineering, which would require you to go through your sales
rep/channel. But there's not point in initiating that process until we
determine what is possible.
