Laptop screen closing

Hi,

Is there any way that you can change at what angle the laptop closes the display?
Right now it closes the display when there is anything less than a 7cm gap at its widest point, which is ridiculous when you wish to run a second monitor.
I understand that a gap is likely required to keep the temps low, but 7cm is practically wide open.

Thanks

But you can’t see the laptop monitor when it’s closed that far down so why not just close it all the way down when running off a monitor. (Or are you still trying to use keyboard?)

I read that it was not a good idea to completely close the laptop completely due to potential heat build up?

Does it matter though that the screen goes off if you can’t see it anyway? Just lower it down leave it slightly open if you wish but as you can’t see it let it turn off?

Are you meaning that your monitor is also going off when you lower the laptop screen?

If that’s the case then you haven’t set up your display settings properly.

No, as I said above - I read somewhere that it was not a good idea to completely close the laptop completely due to potential heat build up?

So what is your issue then sorry? You are closing it to 7cm and ?

You want the screen to stay on or go off? Why do you want it to stay on when you can’t see it?
