I may be wrong, but I don't think you can have a dual-playfield WINDOW.
You can have a dualpf ViewPort.  With some tricks, you can have a dualpf
Screen.  But as far as I know you must render to the unclipped RastPorts
of your viewport or screen.

See Fish Disk 87 for Jim Mackraz's WbDualPF.c for an example of 
retrofitting a screen as dualpf.
