working with a second display

[zoran]

I want to use a second display to work with my MBP. To be frank it kinda mix’s me up when i have to slide windows left n right so that they to go in the large display.
I want to work solely on the large display, is that a matter of a setting?
I want to power on the laptop and see my desktop in the display without sliding windows to it.
Possible?

Yes. Set the display to "mirror" in the Arrange option... Settings > Displays

Is it possible the MBP to be closed and be using and extra keyboard?

So solution is just to have the MBP power cable connected so that the laptop is always powered? Is that it?

Yes or use an app like Clapet:
"Clamshell mode on mac keeps your mac awake when you close the lid but it only works when a power adapter is connected. This app aims to solve this problem by allowing clamshell mode even on battery."

I see... but why use the macbp on battery, while being at home/office, have it on the desk and on a second display?
