Dual monitors on one workplace

Post by bws92082 » Thu Sep 03, 2020 6:47 am

I'm currently using Aster successfully with two workplaces on my Windows desktop computer which has two video ports: the main workplace is on HDMI and the other is on VGA. I would like to add a second/dual monitor to my main workplace (preferably HDMI but VGA is okay). Is this possible? If so, how?
Thx.

When using additional USB monitors, I was able to pull them down from the USB tree and assign to the workspace I wanted. Somebody else mentioned using USB adapters for other ports and achieving the goal this way.

Did doing what you describe create a true dual monitor or was the USB monitor just a copy of your existing monitor?

I have a laptop with its own internal monitor and two ASUS USB monitors, MB 168B+ and MB169B+. Normally I work with all the 3 monitors, but with Aster I wanted to create 2 workplaces, one with 2 monitors, internal and USB, and one with 1, the other USB.
