Hi,

Is it possible to add support for several monitors on MacOS, as it is on Windows? I currently work on 3 monitors and I would like to have RDP on fullscreen on 2 monitors and use one of the monitors locally. On windows you can replace the .rdp file, but on MacOS it doesn't work. In addition, on the windows, when connecting the desktop remotely to the azura, there is an option to select screens.

Best Regards

    Simple and Easy solution.

    Switch off or close down(in case of a laptop) the screens you don't want to login into the remote session and then sign in remotely using "Use all monitors".
    After the login is complete, start the shut screens.

    Note: the screens you want to log in with should be to the right of the arrangement and at least one of the screens should be the main display.

    Unfortunately, you have to use spaces to gesture to the Mac desktop. Then you have to make sure you only use the one monitor for the Mac and not that monitor(s) for the Windows session. Not the best solution, but it is workable.
