Package: arandr
Version: 0.1.9-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I had chosen settings to be:
laptop as 1366 x 768 and normal orientation
vga monitor as 1280 x 1024 and normal orientation
the vga monitor was selected as "Active"
I the applied the settings by clicking the the green checkmark.
In my trouble shooting I used the "Layout -> Save As" menu item to save
the settings in </home/richard/.screenlayout/vga-as-master.sh> .
I expected the settings be maintained across a reboot.
The resolution & orientation were.
The vga as Active *WAS NOT*.
The desktop environment is MATE.
Running the saved script manually had the desired effect.
I noticed 3 other things of unknown relevance:
1. The MATE desktop appears properly on both screens after a reboot.
2. The problem occurs for applications independent of how launched.
3. The "Layout -> Properties" menu item displays
>
>> #!/bin/sh
>> %(xrandr)s
>
It is neither editable nor apparently proper syntax.
