Project with Detached Screen?
I am trying to find a way to be able to detach the screen on my Surface book while still projecting to a screen. I want to be able to walk around. Use the whiteboard feature, etc... Is this possible?

High DPI
I'm loving my high resolution screen, but I'm seriously disliking the legacy support of applications that don't scale to the proper DPI, especially when switching between my 1080p Dell UltraSharp Monitors vs the SD and this huge resolution. A perfect example would be me remoting into Windows Server 2008 R2 on my SB directly through RDM (which doesn't work with DPI scaling apparently, or not well enough) - the screen is so small I can barely read it with my glasses. Another example would be Microsoft's Skype for Business - this is an in house program and it still doesn't scale properly (and is extremely annoying to use) without locking the app compt flag registry key down so that it can't be overwritten.
