None of the existing display configuration tools does what I think is "the right thing". So I went and wrote one.
- Don't start from a stored config, use xrandr to read the systems' current state
- Allow creating "profiles" that will get applied smartly (not there yet)
- Generate a xrandr invocation to reflect the desired configuration
- Allow per-monitor scaling
- Allow arbitrary monitor positioning
- Implement "scale everything so all the pixels are the same size"
If you have PySide2: python -m xrandroll in the folder where you cloned it (of course deps are a problem,
this is experimental code, if you can't figure it out it's probably better for you 😊).
- Implement other things
- Forget about it forever
