Are you talking RE^2 or iR?

On iR you've got amazing flexibility over vof's and the channels they come
out on (2 on the DG4-2 and 8 on the DG4-8) - look into "ircombine" - you
should be able to do almost anything you want....

If you're talking RE^2 are you referring to 2 pipes or a single pipe with an
MCO?

Bother iR and RE have 968x680 and 800x600 as standard vof settable via
"setmon".

The MCO on the RE^2 provides a 3x960x680 vof, but doesn't seem to offer any
combinations involving 800x600...

If you're talking IMPACT then perhaps somebody else can help!

Hope this helps.
