Fullscreen spanning a program across 2+ monitors?
by thinkpadboi from LinuxQuestions.org on (#510ZW)
I'm now working from home indefinitely, and that means having to remote into work, which means having to deal with Citrix. I currently have Citrix installed in a podman container that I can ssh -X into and run remote desktop. The only problem is, I can't find a way to get the window to fullscreen across both of my monitors. I can drag / resize the window very close, but if it snaps or I try maximizing it, it will jump to fullscreen on one screen only. I am using Fedora 31 with Xfce and/or i3.
Ideally, what I think would be the best solution at this point would be lightdm / xfce running on vt1 and having Citrix run without a window manager and forced to span monitors on a separate vt. However, I don't have a good enough understanding of how X works to achieve this. It seems to also interfere with my X session on vt1 when I experiment with running X on other vt's at the same time.
How can I do this?
