Hi Steve,
Multi-monitor support roughly consists of a large display window spanning
multiple monitors. There's extra logic there for application positions etc
but that's not relevant to your issue.
Anything outside that session display window won't be visble. The height is
determined by the height of your monitors and the width is determined by the
amount of available session video memory. Colour depth (eg 32bit vs 16bit )
also plays a role here since greater colour depth means less useable width.
The "normal" amount of assigned session video memory is about 5600 KB. If we
assume that you're running the session in 32bit colour, then the width of
the display window would be (((5600x1024)/4)/1280) would be 1120 pixels.
If you edit the farm properties > Server default > ICA > Display > "maximum
memory to use for each session's graphics" and increase the available TS
session video memory to 8192 KB then you'd have a display width of 1638
pixels which is still not quite enough. BUt if you then reduce the colour
depth to 24 bit you get a width of 2184 pixels which will let you
display 2x1280x1024 quite nicely.
regards,
Rick
