Secondary screen resolution

Hi there,

Need a bit of help. Not sure if it's a feature with lightroom but, I have 2 monitors both 1080p and I want 1 monitor for the develop module and the other for a full screen preview. I want the second monitor to show the image in essentially 1920x1080p resolution whereas on my develop module I have the max res image say 6000x4000. Is it possible to have 2 different image resolutions on different monitors or will have to export the photo after resizing it to 1920x1080? I shoot RAW if this has any effect. Should I edit in the resolution I export to?

Thanks

Adam

If the maximum physical resolution of the monitor is 1920x1080p, no more pixels can be displayed. You can still edit your pictures in the maximum resolution.

So if I had 1 photo max res (6000x4000) full screen on one screen and 1 photo 1080p on the other, they would look identicle?

If your OS is Windows, simply modify the resolution as you see fit for each monitor via apporiate adjustment in Windows.
