Arrangements
It comes back the way you left it
Each device keeps its own settings, so nothing has to be set again because a tablet reconnected. On a Mac, your screen layout comes back too, desk by desk. On Windows, a returning device’s screen takes its place beside the main display, and you arrange it in Windows Settings.
Support: Arrange your screensRemembered per desk
Laptop alone, laptop with the tablet, laptop with the monitor as well: each is its own layout, and the one matching what is plugged in right now comes back by itself.
Settings per device, both ways
Resolution, refresh rate and rotation belong to each device. Change one on the computer or on the tablet and the other end has it, and setting up a phone leaves the tablet exactly as it was.
App windows land where you left them
macOS does not meet a brand-new monitor every time the tablet comes back, so the windows you left on that screen are still on it.
Set a device up before it arrives
Edit a device that is nowhere near you. What you chose is waiting for it the next time it connects. On Windows, rotation is set while the device is connected.
Every device you have ever used
The list keeps them whether they are here or not, most recent first, so a tablet in a drawer is still something you can configure or remove.
Plug it in and it is already right
Nothing to choose when a tablet comes back. The resolution and the rotation it had are applied by the time the picture appears.
