Is there a plan to support more than 2 displays? We use a bunch of DELL Wyse TCs which have 3 DP ports.
Cheers

I would very much welcome support for 3 screens. This should be less of a problem, especially for x86 machines. Should it even be possible on the Raspberry using the CSI port?

Not with wtware until devices with three regular video outputs hit the mass market.
In theory, you can connect 5 displays to a Raspberry. In practice, third HDMI display is not possible at a reasonable price.

I can understand it better with the raspberry, but I don't understand it with an x86 PC.
Windows supports multi-monitor without any problems via Windows RDP, why should this be a problem with WT-Ware on an x86 computer?

Not a problem but a lot of coding. Replace hardcoded boolean variables "main monitor" (true for first, false for second monitor) with list of monitors everywhere. We'll do it after three monitor outputs will be common for thin client hardware.
