How to pin and unpin a display

Published by BetterStage · Instructions for our macOS app; detailed feature reference is linked below.

Steps

  1. 1

    Pin the display under the pointer with menu bar → Pin Monitor, or open Settings → Displays and set that monitor to Pinned (Pro).

  2. 2

    Switch stages — the pinned display stays visible and keeps its own Window Mode.

  3. 3

    Unpin with Pin Monitor again, or set the monitor back to Follows Stages.
