On the system I'm connecting to, there's only a single 4K monitor (laptop screen) connected, as well as 2 display emulators that are running at 1080p (Can easily be removed). I keep the laptop closed, so only the 2 hardware emulated displays are visible. On my viewer system, I've got 4 monitors connected: one that's 3840 x 1600, and 3 that are standard 1920x1080.
My ideal scenario is when I connect to my laptop, I want 2 monitors connected; one with the 3840x1600 resolution, and one 1080p, with the large monitor as the main and one of the 1080p monitors to the right of it. I can get things set this way, but it's a configuration I have to manually set every time I connect.
When I first connect, 4 virtual displays are connected, each running at 1080p. Displays 1 & 2 (hardware emulators) are disabled, and the 4 VNC virtual monitors are connected from left to right: 4 (Main), 5, 3, 6. The uNVC display settings I have set are: Change server resolution, Use all my monitors, Use only Virtual Displays, Allow Full screen multi-monitor spanning. After the connection occurs, on my laptop I have to disable 2 monitors, change 1 monitor to be 3840x1600 instead of 1080p, and depending on my OCD level of the day properly setting monitor 3 as the main/highrez/left-most and 4 as the second monitor vs using 4/5 as they're the left-most by default.
Can anyone help with getting proper properties set so I can skip all these (admittedly minor) setup steps each time I connect?
As a second sidebar; I can't get the Windows Key to activate with my laptop. When I hit either the Windows key or Ctrl+Esc from my viewing system, it activates the window key functionality on the viewer.

Re: Saving Multi-Monitor Config
Some keys require the scrollLock to be one to differentiate between local or remote window keys.
Re: Saving Multi-Monitor Config
Thanks Rudi. The scroll lock thing works great for passing through key-commands.
