Most sites have monitors at their office that the laptops can be plugged into to make more screen space available.

This should only need to be set up once, your laptop should revert to the most recent settings when the same monitor is plugged in again in the future.

Instructions

To set up/modify screen settings, e.g. related to extended desktop, do the following:

  • click the "Intel(R) HD Graphics" Icon on the task bar:

File:Screen settings.png

  • click "Graphics Options", then "Output to", then "Extended Desktop", then choose the order of entries that best matches how your laptop monitor and your external monitor are arranged on your desk. Don't choose "clone", it will show the same on both the laptop and the external screen, which is not very useful.
    • Now you can Clik and DRAG whatever site you want to open up.
