Ive looked for duplicates for this poblem on this si. I use an HDMI cable to connect the notebook and the monitor. And it can reach only the resolution of 1920x108060Hz, when it should reach a res of 2560x108060Hs. In playing around in the free Dell Display Manager tool, I discovered that it's able to run Picture by Picture side by side displays from two inputs on the one monitor. Ive just bought an ultra-wide LG monitor, LG-25UM58 (not the -P version). The first method is useful, but I still like to be able to share a full screen on occasion. Unfortunately the second went out the window when I decided to install a ventilated laptop drawer in my desk, to clear the laptop out of the way. Fancy Zones doesn't actually split the screen into separate monitors, so screen sharing tools still just see one giant display.īefore I made the purchase, I did ask around to see what other people do - the best two bits of advice I got were from and to share applications rather than full desktop, and to use my laptop screen for screen sharing purposes respectively. Any time I screen share in Teams, Skype, Zoom, or other such tools, unless the person at the other end has a monitor with similar display ratio, they're going to see a tiny letterboxed mess.

This is all well and good for me working day to day, but one thing I was worried about before purchasing this screen was what my desktop would look like when I was sharing my screen.
