![]() ![]() I can also use mstsc /multimon as a command line to use multiple monitors. To get a list of monitors, I can run mstsc /l to LIST out all my monitors on my machine. I can put on selectedmonitors:s:x,y and then use the zero-based numbers to indicate my monitors. Have you tried passing /span to mstsc as mstsc /span. Everyone's RDP file is different but yours may look like this: To perform Citrix remote desktop multiple monitors, firstly you need to install and sign in Citrix. It was first introduced with Windows Vista, but did not catch on. ![]() Save your RDP file, and open it in Notepad. Span mode is somewhat similar to Windows multi-monitor mode. Turns out that you CAN span n monitors but it's just buried/internal and has no UI. PRO TIP: whichever monitor you put first in the 'selectedmonitors' seems like it will be the primary display so from my experimenting you can swap the order of those to set up a different primary display (which makes a difference for the default for new windows and for how the taskbar notification area displays). Yes it works for any subset as long as they touch so if you have 5 monitors you can choose 2 of them or 3 or 4 of them.Įxample subset of file flagrantly taken from Scott's post, sorry Scott: span monitors:i:1 Add a new line to the file right after the 'usemultimon' line that reads 'selectedmonitors:s:0,1' without the quotes, where 0,1 are the monitors you selected from the previous steps. This last step does not have a way to add via the regular interface (yet, maybe they'll add it someday). Run the command "mstsc" to open RDP, setup all the settings and check the box that says 'use all my monitors' then SAVE the rdp file. Those the zero-based monitor numbers and be careful to pick monitors that touch (which can be challenging from the listing because it just displays a bunch of pixel mappings so monitor 0 is not necessarily next to monitor 1. Devang Bhatt 1 Jan 24, 2021, 1:13 AM I have a RDP file with the following config it works as expected from Windows Client to Windows Host: screen mode id:i:2 span monitors:i:1 use multimon:i:1 selectedmonitors:s:2,3 When importing this file in mac app, it does not support selected monitors and defaults to all monitors. Run the command "mstsc /l" to get a listing of the monitor IDs available. ![]() And I SWEAR I saw this QA someone else on SO but can't find it now if someone wants to dig for it and mark as duplicate. This is a 'newer' feature in RDP available WAY after the OP asked the question. First, let’s save a RDP connection with Full Screen setup that uses all monitors for remote session. See the link in Jason's post, it has good information but I'll expand the full solution here. ![]()
