Hello,
I'm new here.
I'm french, and I'm student in University in France, in informatic.
I'm apologize for all of the mistake I write.
I would like to see a new fonctionnality in gnome-display-properties :
Possibility to scale the screenWith the same effect as the command
xrandr --output VGA1 --scale 1.2x1.2(you can try with your own desktop protocol here instead of VGA1).
An other option is also possible with panning (try xrandr --output VGA1 --scale 1920x1080).
I would like give some more resolution (with scalling/panning) to the end user in the list of the resolution.
Perhaps, with a chekbox ("active extra-resolutions", or something more
clear).
I look a bit in gnome-control-center-2.32.0/capplets/display/xrandr-capplet.c
I begin to understand a bit the file.
I also look : x11-xserver-utils-7.5+2ubuntu1/xrandr/xrandr.c
And gnome-desktop-2.32.0/libgnome-desktop/libgnomeui/gnome-rr*.h
So questions :
- Do you understand what I want ?
- Do you thinks it's a good idea to add this option ?
- Is-it possible to do it ?
- If I manage to do it, will you want add it in your project ?
- Someone could help me If I need help ?
- I think I have to modify the structure GnomeOutputInfo in gnome-rr-config.h for add variable int height_extend, int height_extend, and one int mode wich can take this constants : MODE_NORMAL, MODE_SCALE, MODE_PANNING
What do you thing about it ?
Thank you for your
attention
Cordially
Quentin B.
