You can use multiple monitors when running Drake Software through Hosting on Rightworks. The steps to enable access to multiple monitors varies depending on whether you are using a Windows or Mac computer to access your Rightworks desktop.

2. Click the Display tab.

4. On the General tab, select Save (optional, but prevents having to make this selection again in the future on this machine).

Mac

1. Launch the Microsoft Remote Desktop application, but do not log in to your saved Hosting on Rightworks desktop yet.

2. Click once on the desktop to select it, then, right-click on the desktop icon and choose Edit.

3. On the pop-up window, click on the Display tab.

4. Check the box Use all monitors.
