Can Stellarium work with Matrox Triplehead2go 3-screens: it will only display on 2 screens?

You can set Stellarium's startup window size in its configuration file ("screen_h" and "screen_w" in the "[video]" section). I have no idea whether this will help. Full-screen mode is supposed to be, well, full-screen - it's the same as with 3D games.

Thanks for reply but still no luck: it still only uses two of the three screens. There may be a command to tell the program to use 3 screens. In my flight simulator config it's
 Use3Renders = 1

but I don't know if that's a generic command or specific to the sim. Will try it anyway. Pls let me know if you come up with anything else. Its a great program, lots of people in my astro group use it.

Problem solved.
The config file in question will be in :C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Stellarium\.

Change the width and height to match your resolution settings in Matrox Triplehead2go - in my case 1024x768[3x1], equivalent to 3072x768 - and set fullscreen to false, forcing the program into windowed mode.
The window can be resized to stretch over all three screens.
