How does one go about opening a dual playfield display with Intuition? Is the
screen flag just there to mess with your mind?  If you can, then how does
Intuition give you control of the two bitmaps?  does it? The reason I want to
use dual playfield is so I can use the Amiga's hardware (for sprites) collision
detection.  (sidenote: why doesn't the system software support this hardware?)
I have managed to get the collision detection to work, but not from Intuition.
Oh yes, if anyone cares I'm using TDI Modula II.

Please respond by mail if possible...
