v18 03 Dual Screen greyed out or not for different monitors

PostFri May 27, 2022 1:51 am

I'm running the v18 public beta 03.
I have Windows 11 on a PowerSpec 1530 Core i7 laptop w/ 32G RAM and an NVidia RTX2070

Using a 2nd monitor plugged into the HDMI port the Dual Screen option works fine under the Workspace menu.
I recently purchased an ASUS 15 inch USB-C powered/interfaced portable monitor for use when travelling.
With this monitor connected, the "ON" option under Dual Screen is greyed out and can't be selected.

With both the HDMI and USB-C monitors, the Primary Display menu option shows
Generic PnP Monitor 1 & 2 for the two displays.
With the USB-C monitor I can select Video Clean Feed and everything works correctly with either monitor selected as Primary.

All other Windows programs and functions related to a 2nd display are working fine with the USB-C display.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tom

There is a special form for version 18 issues.

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
