This allows you to multitask quickly with up to five windows at the same time.Īlternatively, you could stretch a single window throughout both screens to extend your chrome browser window or say, your workspace on Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, or any program you can think of. You can now snap up to three windows side-by-side on the screenpad, along with the two windows you can snap on the primary screen. You can now use the screenpad independently, by keeping separate windows open there while running something else on the main screen which is great for multitasking.

In easy words, it simply extends your screen into the screenpad. However, the ‘Extend’ mode is the real deal. You can either ‘Extend’ the screenpad to show a continued extension of whatever is on the main screen, or ‘Duplicate’ so that the screenpad duplicates whatever is on the first screen, except now you can operate the primary one by the touchpad and the screenpad one by touch. The first and last ones are ‘Main screen only’ and ‘Second screen only’ modes, which are pretty self-explanatory.

This works hand-in-hand with the primary screen in four ways which you can switch with the F8 button. The laptop itself is targeted at artists and those who spend a lot of time with creative software. The screenpad itself is a 2K resolution panel that supports multi-touch input and brings a lot of creative ways to make the most of your programs. The Asus Zenbook Duo's four modes of usability for the two screens can be switched with the F8 button. This moves the small touchpad of the device adjacent to the keyboard on the right. The laptop features a 2K secondary display that sits above the keyboard, which is now shifted entirely to the bottom.
