Double screens / multiple monitors

[paulb48517650]

I am using Lightroom version: 7.0 arm64 (Sep 28 2023) running on a Macbook.

I am a former user of Lightroom Classic (v6 and former).

I was used to have ligthroom on one screen and to edit my picture on another screen (using the (1) and (2) screen option above the strip bar at the bottom of the screen).

With Ligthroom in the Cloud I have been unable to find this option back ... only the option to display my screen in Monitor (1) or Monitor (2) but no option to work with 2 screens (2 monitors). 

Can you confirm if this beautiful fonctionnality has gone away from Ligthroom in the Cloud ?

And so any idea if we can mix subscriptions in which we could have Lightroom in the Cloud but also Ligthroom Classic application ?

Thanks all,

While Lightroom Classic supports a secondary display, Lightroom (cloud) does not. 

And yes, you can use both, but it's tricky, because if you enable sync in Lightroom Classic, then all your images currently in the cloud will migrate to your local hard drive, as they will be downloaded by LrC, and LrC will only sync Smart Previews back to the cloud. So you'll own the responsibility of managing and backing up all the original images.

Thanks Michael, it's what I suspected ;-( .
