How can I use my Macbook Pro 15" (Mojave) built-in display as one space and my 2 external displays as another, separate space? Not each monitor as separate space, but the 2 external display's as a combined single space; separate from my built-in display (2 spaces, 3 displays)
MacBook Pro 15”, macOS 10.14
Click the ? at the lower-right of the "Arrangement" tab of "Displays" system preference.
"To set up a combination of displays showing mirrored and extended desktop images, set up the three displays as an extended desktop, and then Option-drag a display icon onto another display icon to mirror the two displays."
I appreciate your willingness to respond. However, I should have been more descriptive as to what I've already looked at and searched for. All of your suggested responses didn't solve the issue I'm trying to figure out. The kicker is "Displays have separate spaces". I want one space for my built-in display, and one space for both of the external monitors. Not 3 (one space for each) but 2. (one combined using both of the external monitors as a single space) Windows does this, out of the box, with no issues.

I want the external monitors to not be mirrored, but combined as a single space. I'll see if I can play around with the option drag to accomplish it.
