Hi tycho,

I bet it does. Somehow. If that is all the documentation that exists, then I guess I need to dig deep into the code :).

Hi there,

finally I connected my external screen to my laptop and started
using it with qtile. On the way I encountered two difficulties

1. Cloned displays
What is the recommended way of cloning displays?
I am using xrandr with the "--same-as" mode. The screens have
different resolutions. Only on the display with the lower resolution
the open window will look fine. On the other screen a mix of
different groups will appear. Most notably the menu bar will appear
in the middle of the screen.

xrandr --output eDP1 --mode 1920x1080 --output DP2 --mode 1366x768
--same-as eDP1

Does https://github.com/qtile/qtile/pull/383 help you here?


2. Restraining the mouse
Is it possible to restrain the mouse to one display only?
Let's say I have a full screen application (e.g. a game or graphical
editor). On the other display (no clone) I have information for
reading. Now I would like to avoid accidentally entering the other
screen by restraining it to one display only.

Not that I'm aware of currently.
