That is a blocker for me on Wayland, I definitely need muti-output, hotplug, different resolutions, etc. Thank you very much for your work on multi-output!!! > One is for EFL: > https://git.enlightenment.org/core/efl.git/log/?h=feature/wayland/multi-output > > The other is for Enlightenment: > https://git.enlightenment.org/core/enlightenment.git/log/?h=feature/wayland/multi-output > > A few things to note: > > First, Rotation Will Break.

Just some feedback, should multi-display even have the option to rotate? Do you mean like mobile rotation, or rotating a display of like a fixed desktop display, portrait vs landscape? Assuming you mean like mobile rotation, phone/tablet, where you rotate the device and the screen rotates as well. In that scenario, I do not think most will need to rotate anything with multiple-displays. I can only think of like 1 mobile device that had 2 displays. Other than Nintendo 3DS. I am not sure if there would be the need to rotate multiple displays. Beyond rotating one or the other for fixed rotation. Flipping one monitor sideways so you have more height than width, portrait vs landscape. If you mean rotating there, for fixed/static, as well as dynamic, phones/tablets, then sure rotation is necessary and makes sense. If it is just rotation in the mobile sense. I am not sure its necessary. > Another Note: There is a known issue when applying changes which > switch from Clone to Extended mode (or vice verse).

I will try to test it out ASAP once I can get Wayland going under elogind. Which I think is a dbus issue or something. https://github.com/Obsidian-StudiosInc/entrance/files/1865642/wayland.1.log https://github.com/Obsidian-StudiosInc/entrance/files/1865643/wayland.2.log I can test up to 3 on the same system, maybe more. > Should anyone wish to test this out and kick the tires, please feel > free to file Phab tickets and assign them to me. If when I can, I can only comment here... I keep asking for my phab account to be re-enabled. With no response :( https://phab.enlightenment.org/p/wltjr/ -- William L. Thomson Jr.
