Resolved Mac Pro screen sharing resolution.

[MarkC426]

I have been setting up my Mac Studio as my main machine and have my Mac Pro networked for screen/file sharing.
While it was connected to one of my QHD displays it maintained that resolution in screen sharing.

Now I have both monitors on the Studio and MP is headless, the sharing resolution is 1280x1024.
Is there any way to change this...?

You need a headless display adapter/dummy display adapter like this one or you won't have the full resolution/acceleration:

Thanks Alex....👍
On the same subject, would this allow me to put MP to sleep from screen share.

Currently it will not sleep while screen sharing is still running.
If I select sleep, screen goes black but mac stays on.
So once I close screen sharing app, it will go to sleep as per energy saver settings (so no big problem).

would this allow me to put MP to sleep from screen share.

No, screen sharing running to other Mac disables sleep.

No problem, I can live with that, thanks.

Edit:
I was about to buy a dummy dongle, then thought let's try connecting cMP to display with dp cable (Studio is connnected with HDMI), and voila' regular resolution in screen sharing.....
