Hello there, Holly. Thank you for your question. The LG UltraGear 45" OLED Gaming Monitor, model 45GS96QB-B, does support screen-splitting, allowing you to use it as two separate displays on an extended desktop, which can be very helpful for remote desktop work setups like Citrix or AWS. You can achieve this with its PBP (Picture-by-Picture) or PIP (Picture-in-Picture) features, which let you divide the screen and use two sources simultaneously. Here’s how to set it up: Connect your Laptop: Use either HDMI, DisplayPort, or USB-C connections to your laptop. Ensure you’re connecting both monitors as extended displays through your operating system’s display settings. Activate PBP/PIP Mode: Access the OnScreen Control (OSC) menu on the monitor. Look for the PBP/PIP settings under display options. Choose the preferred screen-splitting mode, and adjust the layout to your liking. Arrange Displays in Citrix or AWS Remote Desktop: Configure Citrix or AWS to recognize the split as separate monitors within your extended desktop setup. https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-45gs96qb-b-gaming-monitor#pdp_specs For further assistance, feel free to message us on social media at @LGUSSupport, and we’ll be glad to walk you through the setup.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.In short, Yes. LG has downloadable software that allows you to choose the layout of your monitor whether you want to split it into 2 screens or split it into 4 screens. There is also a PIP option, lets say you have a personal PC plugged into the DP port and a work laptop plugged into the HDMI port, you can set it up to where your HDMI output is displayed while having a PIP of your personal PC displayed as well.
