The procedure below explains how to use the extended desktop functionality using the ClickShare Desktop App on your Windows PC.
Make sure the ClickShare Extension pack is installed on your computer prior to using the ClickShare extended desktop functionality. The ClickShare Extension Pack is available for download here.
If the ClickShare Desktop App (MSI) with the Extended Desktop feature enabled is already installed on your computer, there is no need to separately install the ClickShare Extension Pack for Extended Desktop functionality, as it is included by default with the ClickShare Desktop App (MSI).
Info! Take note that the virtual screen will always use the "native" screen resolution not the set resolution of the connected client PC and this cannot be modified. For higher resolutions this might result in very small text and icons. Solution is to adjust the 'scaling" setting for the virtual generated screen under the windows System Display settings to enlarge the size of the text, App's and other items displayed over this virtual screen.
Info! The extended desktop function in the ClickShare Desktop App is only available if no second screen is connected/configured in your Windows settings.
