Thanks for this information. And I apologize for all the questions, But I purchased the DisplayLink 4K with the impression I could link multiple monitors together via the DisplayPort (which until just recently I didn't even know what the DP version was) You guys should consider making that information readily available in the product description and packaging.... (just a thought).. :-)
I am currently NOT using a dock. Only the DisplayLink 4K connected via the USB
connection, and the ViewSonic plugged into the DisplayLink
(branded as a Toshiba DynaDock 4K) via DVI.
Can I use the DVI and the HDMI ports on the DisplayLink at the same time?
If this is not possible, then I will return the DisplayLink and work on a better solution.
Thanks again.

The alternative is to use two standard USB->DP adapters as the monitor you have is Full HD and therefore doesn't require a 4K adapter.
Alternatively, any of these dual head docking stations using DisplayLink technology will be able to drive two of these monitors. Same number of cables, just connected to the box. The View Sonic VG 2439m has DisplayPort, HDMI and DVI inputs so even docking stations not being dual DP can be used.
MST has no impact on being able to do extended desktop or not.
I don't know what model of dock you have. We don't design or manufacture any end product, therefore contacting the manufacturer for confirmation would be better, but if I have the details I can look for you too.
Kind regards,
