Is the Mac version supposed to Span?

I have a Mac Pro with a 30 inch Dell monitor with a 20 inch Dell monitor on each side of the 30 inch, which are rotated so that they are the same height as the 30 inch. There are two video cards. One is an ATI Radeon X1900XT and the other is an Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT. I am using Marine Aquarium 3.0.1. But the fish do not travel from one monitor to the other, even though I clicked the check mark for multiple monitors. Instead, each monitor shows it's own thing. Am I doing something wrong, or is there a bug in the Mac version of the app?

I don't have a Mac, but I think that spanning is planned but not yet implemented.
Run you clever boy. And remember...

I too don't have a Mac, but I think it's "panning" (ie. scrolling), that is planned but not implemented yet on the Mac. - It should certainly 'span' across more than one screen, and fish should travel from one monitor to the other

Make sure that, Render same image on all monitors, - is NOT checked!

Monitor spanning (one continuous tank on multiple monitors) isn't implemented on the Macintosh at this time. I looked into doing it but we were busy with getting the shaders tweaked until the last minute.

Ah! sorry, Denny. - I stand corrected.... Sounds like another good reason to not want a Mac!

Just got an e-mail about this. They wanted to know how to get the Aquarium to span 2 monitors on the Mac.

Will we see spanning in version 3.1?

Before spanning we'll get manual panning done and some other features which will affect the majority of users who don't have multiple monitors. Spanning will be after that, but it is on the list.
