Just display settings. The keyboard button for toggling multiple displays does basically the same thing (choice of extending, duplicating, etc)
I can technically run two external screens by plugging one monitor into the laptop’s HDMI port, but that kind of defeats the point of a port :( don’t think I’ll do it unless I really need to.

Hmm I’m not sure how it really works through the dock to be honest.
What happens when you put it into extending the screen option?
just_kitten@aussie.zone 6 days ago
It extends onto the laptop’s own screen (which is pointless as the laptop is closed)… Ah well, I’ve simply accepted that I can only use one monitor with this particular laptop via the dock. It’s too complicated for me to understand!

What model dock are you using if I may ask?
