Working with multiple displays
This guide will walk you through connecting, setting up and using multiple computer monitors. 1. First, depending on your computer setup, you will need to connect the monitor a) If you use a desktop computer or laptop with a docking station, your screens should already be connected & laid out appropriately. Please speak to IT if you need assistance with these. b) If you use a laptop computer without a docking station, you can connect an external display directly with the appropriate cable. The two most common interfaces on laptops are: VGA: HDMI: Note: Depending on your laptop and external displays, you may find different connections are available, but these are the most common. 2. You can change where the mouse cursor moves from one screen to others by going into Settings > System > Display: a) Click on Identify to find out which display is which b) Click and drag each display until the layout matches that of the displays on your desk c) Further down the page, you will see Multiple display options, which let you duplicate displays, or extend your desktop across multiple displays (so each display can show its own windows). Ticking Make this my main display will show the Notification area and Search bar on the taskbar on that display. Click Apply to apply the changes. You should now find that the mouse cursor moves seamlessly from one display to another without wrapping around 3.
