Great point @Dan503 -- I was actually meaning to reply to your comment regarding multi-monitor. I completely understand that the concepts are related (dual-screen, foldables and multi-monitor) and I am not opposed at all to consider multi-monitor setups, therefore, if we were heading down that path, I agree we need to find a better name than `fold-*`. While working with developers who are planning to add support for dual-screen & foldable devices, multi-monitor never came up as something they are wanting to target or apply their dual-screen layouts to. So, if we can have a customer with a good use-case for multi-mon, that'd be ideal, until then, I think we can brainstorm what we need to do to enable that path, some questions I have: 1. What do we need to do if the browser window is not maximized across the 2 monitors? ![Frame 35](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/5052316/76911365-fcc95b80-686d-11ea-8123-ff80e18e112c.png) the right side in the figure above is not good for any content, and media queries does not yet enable us to check how big that side is, example: ```css @media (display-span-x: 2) and (min-width: 900px) and (calc(100vw - env(fold-right) >= 400px) { /* only now apply spanning layout, because it's more than a tablet with enough room on the right side of the fold */ } ``` 2. How can multi-monitor be excluded? or should we allow its exclusion at all? I am worried developers will start using device specific `ratio` or other stuff to only apply spanning for portable foldables if we don't offer multi-monitor exclusion. -- GitHub Notification of comment by zouhir Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4736#issuecomment-600354605 using your GitHub account
