[Bug 1724955] Re: unable to drag monitors in Display Arrangement
I have the same issue, Having two external monitor connected to a DELL Dock TB16 and Dock connected to my Dell XPS 13 laptop. I can also confirm that dreamwalker workaround worked for me. When I activate the laptop screen the UI started working draging the screen icons on the display arrangement window in gnome settings (device) page (gnome-control-center). Then after arrangement was set I diactivated the laptop screen before confirming all by pressing apply. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724955 Title: unable to drag monitors in Display Arrangement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1724955/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have three screens: builtin laptop screen and two external monitors. If I turn off the builtin laptop screen, I am not able to rearrange the remaining two screens with the mouse. But if I have all 3 screens enabled I can arrange them as desired and then turn off the builtin screen after.

Also affected by this issue. System: Lenovo X1 carbon (Gen3) OS: Ubuntu 17.10 Can't drag displays in displays settings menu to rearrange layout. One screen is connected via HDMI and an other via mini DP. Interesting thing to note - I have tryed switching cables but the layout didn't changed - that is left screen remained as main screen even now it is plugged via DP but used to be plugged via HDMI.

I have just had this issue as well, I have 3 displays: Internal Panel (Disabled) 27" on HDMI (Active) 27" on VGA (Active) I managed to work around the problem by activating the internal panel so it shows all 3 displays then I could drag the displays into the desired layout. Before applying the changes I turned the internal panel off again as I didn't require it but it saved fine.

I have this issue as well and it's driving me nuts. Is there any command line workaround? I don't mind running a script every boot / screen unlock as long as I can get back to working quickly ...

[Bug 1724955] Re: unable to drag monitors in Display Arrangement
Ultimately there IS a way to rearrange them but one needs to be very patient. It's like a puzzle :) All three monitors of the same resolution are connected to an NVidia 1060 with 3 different types of cable (Display, normal HDMI, old HDMI) so I cannot replug them easily at the card, and I would have do some rerouting at the monitor stands where cables are attached. I will probably have to do that... I also have a TV on an HDMI cable (sadly it always comed as #1), which, when I last unplugged it, rearranged everything again. Not very nice. I attached NVIDIA X Server Settings. BTW I tried to reorder monitors in NVIDIA X Server Settings but the settings were always overwritten on reboot. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2017-11-07 18-31-20.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1724955/+attachment/5005611/+files/Screenshot%20from%202017-11-07%2018-31-20.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724955 Title: unable to drag monitors in Display Arrangement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1724955/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
