Boox Max2 monitor resolutions

I have eye issues and I run my Windows-10 PC with a resolution of 1024 x 768, in order for all text/icons to be as large as possible. If I use the Max2 as a mirrored monitor, will this small resolution automatically expand out to the device’s 2200 x 1650 resolution (i.e. full-screen)? I am asking because many years ago, when I tried to use my Kindle DX (1600x1200 resolution) as a monitor (using VNC), it would not expand full screen, but instead did a one-to-one pixel mapping, such that the PC desktop's did display its 1024x768 pixels, however, the DX displayed dark/black on 1600-1024 pixels on the X-axis & dark/black on 1200-768 of the Y-axis, where too much of the DX’s real-estate was not utilized.

You can pretty easily scale a smaller resolution to the full size of the screen.
For your OS I do not know many details - the level of "automation", i.e. of how much further configuration you have to do, that I do not know.

(Missed the detail)
If that device were Android based, and you used bVNC as a client, you would have had the option to fit the source to the screen. It is just a software feature.

EDIT: I recommend that you skim through the "Monitor" thread. It is hefty and evolving like a log, but it contains these informations.

Smaller resolutions didn't work with Windows 7 and Onyx 2 but you can increase the DPI level in Windows 10 without big problems.
