If the GSoC application would succeed, I think the main task would be to prepare a good foundation on which we can then build something more complex. :-)<br></div><div><br></div><div>Linda<br></div><aside>

I trust you mean well. Let me provide some input.<br>
<br>
My own GUI arrangement for GRASS work was on two monitors (same size,<br>
same DPI). The first monitor with the two smaller GRASS windows plus<br>
non-GRASS windows of the project was in in horizontal orientation. The<br>
second monitor with the GRASS map display was in vertical orientation<br>
to fit the region of interest. And I was running out of screen space<br>
all the time, so if this was a commercial project, there would be at<br>
least one more monitor to provide more space for the multiple<br>
independent windows. Clearly, for a single window UI it would not make<br>
as much sense.<br>
<br>
One other interesting arrangement is a more or less ordinary monitor to<br>
display some GUI in normal usable size plus another "high DPI" monitor<br>
to display some other GUI that needs to show as many physical pixels at<br>
once as possible. Of course, neither the physical size nor the pixel<br>
count match between the monitors, so when a window spans more than one<br>
monitor it becomes difficult to use.<br>
<br>
Finally, GIMP has been using multiple window UI for many years, and the<br>
users figure the GUI out just fine.<br>
<br>
So a multiple window GUI makes a sound use case and it would be nice<br>
to keep it reasonably accessible.<br>
<br>
