Running secondary monitor in fullscreen mode whilst using primary monitor?

[nick_harambee]

Hi

I wonder if there is a way of running my secondary monitor in fullscreen mode whilst still being able to use my primary monitor for other tasks.

This functionality is built in to Quicktime 7, with the 'Present Movie' option in the View Menu. I would like to be able to do the same with both the iTunes visualizer and iPhoto slideshows. Currently both of these applications black out the monitor that isn't being used when these features are run in fullscreen mode.

I don't mind doing some jiggery pokery under the hood to get this working if someone can point me in the right direction. Or maybe there is a simple solution?

Thanks

Nick
