Hi Filip,

If you system is a relatively common configuration then we might be
able to add  a View::setView*() and associated support into .view
format, this way others will benefit and will be able to test the
functionality.

The way I developed the spherical display support was by creating
experimental code in the osgdisortion example, then when it was ready
I moved the code into osgViewer::View, then further evolve the code
from there.  Perhaps the same approach might work for you.

Robert.
