With full mouse support now available, you can connect an external screen, a mouse and a keyboard to your iPad and then use it like a normal computer. You cannot turn off the internal screen, but you can simply ignore it and use only the external monitor (with black bars on the sides because of the different aspect ratio).
That is, until you open an app like Photos that has special support for external monitors. When you open a photo for editing, Photos shows a fullscreen preview on the external screen (even without black bars). However, you cannot interact with this preview. There's no mouse pointer. So now you actually have to use the internal screen. And if you want to use your iPad as a computer, that's really annoying. Is there a way to disable this special functionality in apps like Photos? Can you force the iPad to always mirror the internal screen to the external one?
