Multiple monitors

Will WVD let me use multiple monitors at their native resolution running on Windows 10 locally.  Does the WVD client take care of this?

See the following which worked for me. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-virtual-desktop/multi-monitor-default-for-wvd-changed-to-single-monitor-recently/m-p/2431154

Also, it started working again for one of my machines, where only one monitor was working. Im not sure if maybe it's because i noticed that the multimon property (multimon:i:1) was missing from the advanced RDP properties section last night, even though it was enabled, and then added it manually.

      Hi folks, thank you for raising the issue. We have resolved the problem and it should now use multi monitor by default once again.

        DavidBelanger Hope you are hale and healthy.  I need some assitance in fixing a strange issue using WvD . I am currently using 3 monitors for my work to console monitor. We are in porcess of migrating from VDI to WVD . I am using Windows desktop client https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/windowsdesktop for windows 64 bit. When I maximize the window to full screen, my other two monitors also goes blank with windows ICON stopping me to perform multi tasking. If I click restore down (middle option in top tab with session details)  the screen gets little smaller and other two monitors are display the contents from local machine. How to fix the issue to use full screen without affecting my pther monitors connected to local machine for multi tasking. Please advise. attached the screenshot of multi monitor when WVD is maximised.
