Setting Display Styles For Multiple Monitors in Windows 10
After the external monitor(s) have been set up, users can select the
desired display style from
Multiple displays menu: Duplicate, Extend,
Show only On, Disconnect.
• Duplicate these displays:
Duplicate the same screen on two monitors
with the same resolution, chosen based on the monitor with a lower
resolution.
• Extend these displays: This option is recommended when an external
monitor is connected to a laptop, and each monitor can display
different screen independently to improve user convenience. The
relative position of the screens can be set up here, for example monitor
1 may be set up to be to the left of monitor 2 or vice versa. This
depends on the physical position of the LCD monitor in relation to the
laptop. The horizontal line displayed on both monitors can be based on
the laptop or external monitor. These are all adjustable options, and all
a user need do is drag the monitor of the main screen to the extended
monitor.
