It is undeniable that the screen is one of the best features of every Apple product. Apple ships computers – from iPads to iMacs – with high-quality, well-calibrated displays that can be used for professional work that requires high fidelity. It now seems that Apple is using a new Mac and iPad display feature to launch with macOS 10.15.
Previously, Astro HQ had developed a solution, Luna Display, that allowed Mac users to use their iPad as an external display. There are many solutions on the market for this, but Luna Display has become the most important solution because it is a hardware product that harnesses the power of the graphics processor to make the experience as seamless as possible.
Apple is now working to make this native Mac experience seamless. According to people familiar with the development of macOS 10.15 – the next major release of Apple's desktop operating system – the new system will provide a feature that allows users to send any window from an application to a external screen. The external screen can be an external display connected to a Mac or even an iPad.
The new feature – called "Sidecar" internally – is accessible via a simple menu. This new menu will open by hovering over the green "Maximize" button in the window of a Mac application for a split second. The menu will have options for displaying the window in full screen, overlaying it, and switching to external displays, including the user's iPad and the external displays connected to the Mac. Selecting one of the display options moves the current window to the selected external display or to the iPad, in full screen.
Users with an iPad that supports Apple Pencil will also be able to draw with the pen on iPad when it is used as an external display for Mac, turning the iPad into a Wacom tablet. Engineers are also working on options that will allow windows to be easily aligned on one side of the screen, such as a feature that already exists on Windows.
Apple is expected to unveil macOS 10.15 in June, at the opening ceremony of its global developer conference.
