I have Toshiba P50 laptop and now I am using HDMI to EIZO CS240 monitor. I would like to add one more monitor using VGA port. Is it possible. Using PS and LR.

Thank you for your quick answer.
According video config I could use 2 or more monitors however I am not sure how VGA port would function in Photoshop and Lightroom.
I have integrated Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600. I'd like to have for example LR library on VGA screen and developing on HDMI. Maybe PS and LR can fix that. Using Win 10.

I am not sure what you are talking about.

Try it, hook up both monitors. Configure VGA output NEXT to your main display, and the VGA output will function as a virtual desktop on the right side of you main display. Drag your Photoshop/Lightroom App to it, after you have open it.

I too have an Intel chip with 4600 graphics and am using the second VGA hookup, except mine shows ghosting, since I only use it for the occasional management purposes it doesn't bother me much. It may not happen to you, or needs calibration. Just thought I mention it.
