Horizon Workrooms Remove Virtual Desk

IdoSudo

Greetings:

Running Windows 11 for Workrooms, and finally I can see three screens like my Apple friends have had for awhile. However, the virtual desk in Workrooms hides the center of the taskbar in Windows 11, so I can't get to a lot of things. I don't need a virtual desk. All I need are super large screens to interface with my PC. Is there some way to just hide that dang desk? 

I'm really frustrated with this one, although I am a big supporter of Meta and have purchased 3 Quest 2s and 1 Quest Pro. However, this virtual desk is just stupid IMHO. I don't need a cute clock or a view of a lake. I just need a way to get some really large screens of my PC to see if I can't come up with some better workflows. Your dang desk is seriously in my way here.

Pointing out the obvious, but you mean just minimising that desk menu / display / UI ?

Just select a button at the bottom bar twice to toggle the UI off.

Whats the issue exactly? You're saying the desk is physically blocking the bottom of your screens in the lobby / personal office? Do you have your desk set to the correct hight of your IRL desk?

A VR screenshot would be super useful if you can grab one and upload here

This shows what I am talking about. There is that "selector window" which covers the bottom center of the middle screen taskbar, which in Windows 11 is where most stuff happens. I would like to know how to remove that so I can have access to the full screen. In my opinion, it would be even better if I could get rid of everything except three super large sharp screens. I would rather have a black void as opposed to a view of a lake or desk or fireplace or whatever. I'm hoping the Quest Pro can be a good tool for my old eyes to help with editing phots and video.
