Display Menu

A simple macOS menubar extra to apply display presets. A preset consists of screen resolutions, mirroring configurations, and dock settings.

Configuration

At this stage, the app is very uncomplicated — it can only display a menu, and has no dedicated configuration GUI. To get it to work, you need to write a JSON configuration file file and put it in ~/Library/Application Support/com.chriswarrick.DisplayMenu/DisplayMenu.json. A sample file is included with the distribution.

As part of the configuration, you need to figure out ScreenIDs for your screens — use the command-line ./PrintScreenIDs executable or compile the .swift source file yourself.

Roadmap

• only change settings that differ from current setup
• show setting applicability and current preset in the menu
• build a configuration GUI

displaymenu's Issues

Disable a display

I love the option to quickly switch my display configuration, this tool is great. What I am also looking for is the ability to fully disable a particular display altogether. I think it’s not supported in this tool, but I wanted to make sure I didn’t miss it. Thank you!
