Does TDE have either?
I want to get an ultra wide and place Desktop 1 and Desktop 2 side by side on the monitor screen at the same time (picture by picture).
Technically, I guess I don’t need too? Just put all the apps from both on one desktop and manually keep them to their ‘side.’
Thanks, Michael

Hi Michael,
for you, it might be interesting to divide the physical screen into two virtual screens. I (so far) I had no opportunity to try it, but it looks viable. For you could work some of the following:

Thanks Slávek,
As a Note: If xrandr is version 1.5 or greater, then FakeXRandR is no longer needed.
Also, unless you absolutely need to go full screen with something (which I found out I didn't), then it's just easier to use an ultra wide monitor as is. This allows you to divide the screen width 'on the fly' for things that need some extra width.
Best All, Michael
