If an external device is connected, it will show if it is extending or mirroring.
You can choose either “Mirrored” or “Extended Desktop” mode for your displays. In Mirrored mode, you have a single desktop and it’s
mirrored on all your displays. In Extended Desktop mode, each display simply gives you more desktop room and they’re separate.
