I don't think this would work with 2 screens for Gotomeeting as you'd need to stretch both width and height which is not possible with only 2 monitors.

Windows is quite good at scaling across both monitors- and apart from seeing a whole shared Gotomeeting screen, the other benefit is testing your apps in 4K where VFP apps often have issues you'd prefer to sort before customers report them.

Yes, I remember when this poster asked about having 6 monitors. He is a super developer and very young. I am a minor developer and not so young :)
As you know, some people are very content using just a notebook; other have 2 screens, then some have 3 screens, and so on. I thought that a 4K screen would be a better case than the existing 2 screens.
But from the input from Join Fabiani, I don't think so. So I will stay with the existing 2 screens.

Thank you.
