GIMP & dual screen usage? - yy_hom - 04-09-2023

Hi Folks,

GIMP newbie using version 2.8 on 32-bit W7 laptop, just as a hobby, not professional.
Considering buying W11 laptop, and the 'asus zenbook pro duo 15' caught my eye:

The 'screenpad plus' feature on the 2nd display supposedly works with Adobe p-shop, etc. Will it also work with GIMP? If not Windows, maybe Linux?

Sorry if this is not posted to the correct forum. TIA for your time.

I do use Gimp on two displays (obviously, not in single-window mode), but that's on Linux but IIRC it also worked on Windows. Now if the displays are pressure sensitive, I can't tell if this is fully supported by Gimp or if you just get a pressure-less pointer.
