How can you have screen 1= image fullscreen , screen 2= thumbnails ?

[Crussi]

Hi, I have read Bridge now has dual screens/monitors capability. I have the latest version installed : how can you have image with the circle in fullscreen on laptop screen ? while having thumbnails of all the images on the 2nd screen.

Currently as you can see it is not satisfying: the preview use just a part of the laptop screen.

You would have to enlarge the Preview window to fill the screen.

I have enalarged it to the maximum I could with the mouse but there is still plenty of space I want to use:

Undock the Preview Panel, pull it onto your other screen and resize to suit.

This is what I have already done, on the screenshot in my 1st post.

But this is extremely basic. We want fullscreen and also we do not want a direct maximize button like on any window.

Could this be a case of your images being of a low resolution?

In the preview window images are not necessarily enlarged to fill the available space.

Depends upon the image and monitor resolutions. 

Try with a high resolution image and see if that fills up the available space.

The issue I have is not the resolution, but the fact that it takes only around 70% of the available screen space.

Furthermore my laptop screen is just a 1080p resolution monitor (and the image is more than 12MP) so the issue is due to the panel not able to be confgured in fullscreen. Poor Adobe design.

If it is of any consequence, my displays are 27" with 2560 x 1440 resolution.

With the preview window stretched to fill one monitor screen, this is what I get when viewing a jpeg image size 6960 x 4640 at 350 ppi resolution.

Rough measurements (with a tape measure!) approximate this to 73% of the space available, comparible with your figures. So perhaps that's as much as we are able to expect.

With my laptop screen it is taking rather 60%. I wish there was a way to take 100%. There is nothing better than a image in fullscreen because even on your large screen, having a white bar at the top and the Windows bar at the bottom does not help concentrating on the photo.

Press the spacebar.

[Crussi]

The Spacebar is opening the image fullscreen on the screen where the thumbnails are. This is not what we want. We want the fullscreen image on the 2nd screen.

[Lumigraphics]

You can't do that.

This feature is really missing. Most users use 2 screens regularly in 2023.
