Is a two-monitor setup possible with a MacBook Pro via USB-C with this monitor? I would connect the Mac via USB-C to this monitor and connect a second monitor via DisplayPort (daisy chain)? In other words: Can macbook with a usb-c connection control both monitors via daisy chain setup?

Helpful answer

I am running two of these monitors through a MacBook Pro. Unfortunately, Apple does not support the MST (daisy chain). Therefore, a USB-C cable must be plugged in for each monitor. Charging the MacBook works perfectly.
With the Surface Book 2, the setup works with a USB-C cable to the first monitor and then with MST via display port to the second monitor.
Conclusion: Monitors can e but unfortunately not the Mac Book Pro. Perhaps a 32:9 monitor could be an option!
