Scenario:
I have two laptops; work and personal.
I have two ultrawide monitors configured one above the other.
Current Config:
Work laptop displays on the bottom monitor.
Personal laptop displays on the top monitor.
Desired Config:
To be able to easily switch the two displays around so that personal is on the bottom and work is on top and vice versa.
Question:
How would I best achieve the desired config? It is important that I see both machines on top of one another, I would just like to have the ability to use whichever is the 'desired' laptop at that particular time on the bottom (primary) monitor.
I thought KVM switch but I don't believe that would work as I hope above?

sorted byBoth laptops connect to respective dock when needed.
Each dock connected to both monitors (one with DPs , other with HDMI)
I just change monitor display to DP Or HDMI as per need.
I still have problem with keeping 2 pair of wireless keyboard/mouse. At some point I might think of solving that. (edited)
