updated description to reflect the design requirement, ideally we need
to know what happen when connecting an unity8 powered device to an
external screen, also what control should be available in settings
** Description changed:
Under unity7/xorg it's possible to configure the position of the screens and
their geometry, that includes
- resolution of each screen
- rotation possible
- relative position (external on top of laptop, or on the right)
- definition of a "primary" monitor (the one containing the launcher if you
decide to have that UI element only on one screen)
- etc
Under unity7 the configuration is applied on login by unity-settings-
daemon using xrandr. In the new world unity8 should probably be the one
setting up the configuration at start
+
+ It would be useful to have input from design as well, on what should
+ happen when connecting an unity8 powered device to an external screen.
+ Should it mirror by default? Do we need settings control to configure
+ what to do, ...
** Also affects: ubuntu-ux
