Virtual Server with dual screens

I am fortunate to have a new laptop that has supports dual screens. What is nice is to have a dev environment in one screen and use the other for word, outlook etc.

What would be nice would be for the virtual server console, when in full screen mode, to only occupy one screen and leave the other screen as normal. Unfortunately running in full screen does only fill one monitor but it also blanks the other monitor to your wallpaper :(

Virtual Server with dual screens

I am fortunate to have a new laptop that has supports dual screens. What is nice is to have a dev environment in one screen and use the other for word, outlook etc.

If anyones got a work around would love to know it.

Interestingly the remote desktop client does go full screen on just one of the 2 monitors.

Hope that the virtual server client adopts this in the future.
