Just gave this #VR productivity app a go... I tried it before on the Quest 1, but couldn't really make head nor tail of it, plus the Q1's resolution was just not up to it.

With the Quest 3... I gotta say, mmm, this is really getting somewhere. For some reason when I tried it yesterday I had no luck at all moving windows between the virtual screens and opening a program would always open its window in a different screen to the one I opened it in.

Today I had no such issues. I very easily set up three giant virtual monitors in place of my one physical (admittedly also giant) monitor and I was able to drag apps between them no problem. Quality of display was easily good enough for astronomical data visualisation and source extraction : in fact, since the Q3 is quite bright, in some ways this was even better than the flatscreen. Not entirely mind you, there is still a tiny bit of pixilation that for gaming isn't even noticeable at all, but for work does become something that's, well, definitely there. Not really distracting, but you can't really avoid it either. But simply making the monitors bigger pretty nearly avoids this.

In terms of workflow, I'd say I'm at the "I'm intrigued, tell me more". I only had about a half hour before the battery ran out on the headset (it was rather less than 50% charged) and I didn't think to try the cable connection. But working on the virtual displays quickly became natural. I could work in one screen with a notes file in another to remind me of what to test. I sent an email without feeling distracted by being in VR. I kept my email open in another screen and never had to switch between workspaces to see what was going on. This definitely requires further investigation.

Of course what would really be fun would be to ditch the virtual monitor setup and have each program's window rendered as a separate, manipulatable virtual object. Let me strew my apps around my room like they really existed and really maximise the available space...
