A single value selects a specific monitor, two values select monitors at the top-left and bottom-right corners of the required area, four specify monitors at the top, bottom, left and right edges of the area. Receiver assumes that the rest of the -span option value is a list of monitor numbers.
It can be removed only by ending the session.Ī is specified, Receiver tries to create a session that covers all monitors. The session window will not be visible to the window manager, will not have an icon and can not be restacked. It is intended as a last resort, for use with uncooperative window managers. O is specified, the session window will have the override-redirect redirect attribute.Ĭaution: The use of this option value is not recommended. And if that is the whole option value, wfica then exits. H is specified, a list of monitors is printed on stdout. The - span option has the following format: Important: -span has no effect on Seamless or normal windowed sessions (including those in maximized windows). It allows full-screen sessions to span multiple monitors. I would like to change the order but have found no setting to do so.Full-screen sessions span all monitors by default, but a command-line multi-monitor display control option, -span, is also available.
This results in moving the mouse to the right or using shortcut keys to go to the next to the right monitor, and it jumping over to the leftmost monitor, which is awkward. Instead, it thinks the monitor is still in the typical, "standard" layout, and I have found no setting to change this.Ĥ: When using three monitors, Awesome-WM currently thinks that the monitor in the center is monitor 1, the monitor to the right is monitor 2, and the monitor to the left is monitor 3. I have found no setting that changes this.ģ: If one of the monitors is a vertical monitor, it is of course desired for Awesome to change its alignment to vertical, shifting things by 90 degrees and changing what the "top" is. Awesome defaults to a new desktop with its own items on it. How can I resolve this without logging out and back in?Ģ: I may wish to clone the display to two or more screens, if I am doing a presentation. This also applies in reverse - if I launch Awesome with two monitors, removing one results in Awesome still thinking there is another monitor and having windows there, the mouse going over the edge, etc. I have to log out and log back in again, and even resetting with ctrl-super-r does not suffice. These are all fairly simple configuration questions, but I have not been able to figure them out.ġ: If I am already in Awesome-WM, and I plug in an additional monitor, Awesome cannot figure out that there is an additional monitor and create a new desktop image and visuals on it. I have four related questions regarding the use of the window manager AwesomeWM when multiple monitors are involved.
