| gamma correction in pass through mode |

| The hp visualization center sv6 supports |
| (i.e. red, green, and blue can all be controlled individually). However, |
| pass through mode only allows for |
| for normal sv6 mode and pass through mode to |
| mode simply uses the sv6's red gamma channel as the pass through |
| gamma correction value for red, green, and blue. |

| A side effect of pass through mode is that an application cannot use the |
| full area of a |
| the application is operating exactly as it would on a standard desktop |
| workstation, and so it has no access to the sv6 channels, which are driv- |
| ing other monitors or projectors in the display. The result of this is that |
| an application in pass through mode is constrained to the area of the dis- |
| play handled by the channel driven by the application master worksta- |
| tion. Typically, for a two- or three- channel system, this is the |
| channel. Furthermore, if the display is projected and uses |
| technology for a seamless image, the overlap region may prove |
| |
| will fall off as it approaches the edge of the channel (because its pixels |
| are not duplicated in the channel next to it). Therefore it may be neces- |
| sary to resize the window a little to ensure that it doesn’t enter the blend |
| region. |
| Note that applications that do not require pass through mode can use |
| any region of the full |
| through applications that may be running at the same time. |
