Jay I've been running the previous multi-monitor commit on a pre-release 1.6.0 for several weeks at work and everyone loves it!
Unlike mstsc.exe, Guac's support allows you to spawn more browser connections, regardless of the number of actual monitors you have. Its up to you to place them on screen or use them as virtual desktops that do not match to real screens. It works really well and it is a great way to finally get users to stop griping and use the CTRL-ALT-SHIFT menu. I have no idea when it might be released (1.6.1 perhaps). I find the code quality in ApGuac to be rather good so if you want to give it a go get your compiler out! You may find this repo handy: https://github.com/gerdesj/Various and the comments on how to get at the code which includes the multi screen support: https://github.com/apache/guacamole-client/pull/1061#issuecomment-2861246211 I will be updating my doc again when I have time and I also have one for RedHat but that still has customer details on it! These are .pdfs direct from my company internal media wiki and they get used for real. The docs for AG are superb but of necessity they have a far greater coverage than mine which are rather more task focused with minimal chat.
