Description

I intentionally left it out in the initial version as I don't use multiple screens myself, so I'm not exactly sure how it should optimally work. Please leave some feedback if you need multiple screen support.

Possible solutions:

  1. Add preference to display it on the second screen if connected.
  2. Add preference to display it on a selected screen if connect. Would be a dropdown to choose screen.

I'm open to other ideas.

Research direction
Investigate Plash's window management and preferences system. Understand how the app currently displays the wallpaper and explore adding a screen selection dropdown in preferences.
