|    virtual monitor problem    |

      XPost: alt.os.linux.mint       From: usenet.16@scottsonline.org.uk.invalid              I've been trying to set my 3 1920x1080 monitors up to look like a 1920-       plus a 3840-wide screen.              The recipe seems to be something like:              xrandr --setmonitor xyzzy 3840/1086x1080/302+1920+0 HDMI-0,HDMI-1-2              xrandr --fb 5761; xrandr --fb 5760 # see       https://chipsenkbeil.com/notes/linux-virtual-monitors-with-xrandr/              and this seems successful:              xrandr --listmonitors       Monitors: 2        0: xyzzy 3840/1086x1080/302+1920+0 HDMI-0 HDMI-1-2        1: +DP-1 1920/543x1080/302+0+0 DP-1                     However, when I run either of LO Impress or OBS Studio, neither       recognizes the extended monitor. Each lists two monitors (rather than       three), but treats both as 1920 wide. So my presentation display is       scaled down. Not what I need.              Can anyone advise how to do this please?              Thanks.              --       Mike Scott       Harlow, England              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
