[Athen] Screen Magnification and Open GL --- or---

[Humbert, Joseph A]

Hi!

Being A Computer Graphics Graduate I can tell you that I think you will
be hard pressed to find an software that takes control of the video
chain that will play nicely with Maya or any 3D software, but having
said that you can switch Maya to use a software renderer instead of
using the graphics card.  Maybe that will help.  I'm interested to hear
what you find.  Thankx.

That is one of the suggestions I am hoping to hear. I started with ZT
because that is what we have on hand. I spoke with Van and she said I
should speak with Garath. I'm just covering my bases. 

Thanks --- Dann
