Hello @jstarbell and @Flustered,

I was able to use Spout to direct several _PGraphics_ to separate receiving sketches and display those on separate monitors.

These are all on one screen:

Adding _fullScreen()_ with the display number to the receiving sketches directed it to separate monitors.

Reference:

I used:

- MultipleSpoutSenders
- SpoutDataReceiver (receives one _PGraphics_ to display)
- SpoutDataReceiver 2 (copy of above sketch for the second _PGraphics_ to display)

It was simple enough to do once you get familiar with Spout and examine the example code provided and modify as required.

Have fun!
