An easy way to fix the overlap is to do sudo apt install arandr and run that application. It lets you organize the screens and you can fix the overlapping.

Thanks for that, I’ll check it out.

BTW…

The last file I attached, referencing the xrandr and the .bashrc file was the wrong one. Attached is the correct one.

We are checking on our side what improvements can be done, but if you fix the overlapping of the monitors’ position, it should be OK.

Took me a bit to figure this one out but I was able to set the monitor position; Based on these resources:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1256344/how-to-fix-screen-overlap-and-top-left-zoom-of-hd-external-monitors-while-using#1256392

and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BPY4b2FcRg

I entered the content from the attached file into my .bashrc file. If I ever need to make the adjustment again, I can just run  xreset from the terminal, which should fix it, as it doesn’t seem permanent. It seems to reset on each reboot.

However, I DO have the “Full screen on all monitors” icon/option now:

and my xrandr result:

It seems that my previous post was cut off…

Is the Kubuntu using Wayland or Xorg?

Xorg I believe – System Info

=====================================

In any case, I had a number of updates come in for the Kubuntu machine, and after the install, a re-boot was recommended.

After re-booting the Kubuntu machine, and going back into NM, I still do not have the “Fullscreen across all displays” icon/option, BUT now, when entering Fullscreen mode, the window opens across all displays, which is exactly what I wanted.

Once in the Win-10 Virtual Desktop, the main NM window in is the background so I can alt+tab to see the Virtual Desktop taskbar, or simply use the system shortcut keys (ctrl+F1, F2, F3, F4 etc.) to jump to any Virtual Desktop directly.

The connection info. didn’t seem to change:

Also, I had removed the previous setting targeting the nxplayer.bin window for resizing, so not exactly what changed.

Here is a quick video for reference:

Strange. I understand that you are connecting to your Windows machine and there are two physical monitors there. Your Kubuntu also has dual physical monitors as well. Have I understood right?

Yes, that is correct. Although technically, I am using Virtual Display Adapters  for the RDP/NM. I have connected, and was testing with a KVM switch so the 2 monitors were shared between the two systems. This caused issues since the monitors were not kept active upon switching, which lead me here.

The Linux/Kubuntu Machine is a dual boot and I did try to boot into Windows, and connect to the other Windows machine and everything worked as expected. I got both monitors from the remote, displaying across both monitors on the local and even the icon/option for “Full screen across all displays”
