It can also set the screen size. + +If invoked without any option, it will dump the state of the outputs, +showing the existing modes for each of them, with a '+' after the preferred +modes and a '*' after the current mode. + +There are a few global options. Other options modify the last output that is +specified in earlier parameters in the command line. Multiple outputs may +be modified at the same time by passing multiple \-\-output options followed +immediately by their corresponding modifying options. +.IP \-\-help +Print out a summary of the usage and exit. +.IP "\-v, \-\-version" +Print out the RandR version reported by the X server and exit. +.IP \-\-verbose +Causes xrandr to be more verbose. When used with \-q (or without other +options), xrandr will display more information about the server state. Please +note that the gamma and brightness informations are only approximations of the +complete color profile stored in the server. When +used along with options that reconfigure the system, progress will be +reported while executing the configuration changes. +.IP "\-q, \-\-query" +When this option is present, or when no configuration changes are requested, +xrandr will display the current state of the system. +.IP "\-\-dryrun" +Performs all the actions specified except that no changes are made. +.IP "\-\-nograb" +Apply the modifications without grabbing the screen. It avoids to block other +applications during the update but it might also cause some applications that +detect screen resize to receive old values. +.IP "\-d, \-\-display \fIname\fP" +This option selects the X display to use. Note this refers to the X +screen abstraction, not the monitor (or output). +.IP "\-\-screen \fIsnum\fP" +This option selects which screen to manipulate. Note this refers to the X +screen abstraction, not the monitor (or output). +.IP \-\-q1 +Forces the usage of the RandR version 1.1 protocol, even if a higher version +is available. +.IP \-\-q12 +Forces the usage of the RandR version 1.2 protocol, even if the display does +not report it as supported or a higher version is available. +.PP +.SH "RandR version 1.4 options" +.PP +Options for RandR 1.4 are used as a superset of the options for RandR 1.3. +.IP \-\-listproviders +Report information about the providers available. +.IP "\-\-setprovideroutputsource \fIprovider\fP \fIsource\fP" +Set \fIsource\fP as the source of display output images for \fIprovider\fP. +This is only possible if \fIsource\fP and \fIprovider\fP have the \fBSource +Output\fR and \fBSink Output\fR capabilities, respectively. +If \fIsource\fP is \fB0x0\fP, then \fIprovider\fP is disconnected from its +current output source. +.IP "\-\-setprovideroffloadsink \fIprovider\fP \fIsink\fP" +Set \fIprovider\fP as a render offload device for \fIsink\fP. +This is only possible if \fIprovider\fP and \fIsink\fP have the \fBSource +Offload\fR and \fBSink Offload\fR capabilities, respectively. +If \fIsink\fP is \fB0x0\fP, then \fIprovider\fP is disconnected from its current +render offload sink. +.PP +.SH "RandR version 1.3 options" +.PP +Options for RandR 1.3 are used as a superset of the options for RandR 1.2. +.PP +.IP \-\-current +Return the current screen configuration, without polling for hardware changes. +.IP \-\-noprimary +Don't define a primary output. +.PP +.B "Per-output options" +.IP "\-\-panning \fIwidth\fPx\fIheight\fP[+\fIx\fP+\fIy\fP[/\fItrack_width\fPx\fItrack_height\fP+\fItrack_x\fP+\fItrack_y\fP[/\fIborder_left\fP/\fIborder_top\fP/\fIborder_right\fP/\fIborder_bottom\fP]]]" +This option sets the panning parameters. As soon as panning is +enabled, the CRTC position can change with every pointer move. +The first four parameters specify the total panning area, the next four the +pointer tracking area (which defaults to the same area). The last four +parameters specify the border and default to 0. A width or height set to zero +disables panning on the according axis. You typically have to set the screen +size with \fI--fb\fP simultaneously. +.IP "\-\-transform \fIa\fP,\fIb\fP,\fIc\fP,\fId\fP,\fIe\fP,\fIf\fP,\fIg\fP,\fIh\fP,\fIi\fP" +Specifies a transformation matrix to apply on the output. +A bilinear filter is selected automatically unless the \-\-filter parameter is +also specified. +The mathematical form corresponds to: +.RS +.RS +a b c +.br +d e f +.br +g h i +.RE +The transformation is based on homogeneous coordinates. The matrix multiplied +by the coordinate vector of a pixel of the output gives the transformed +coordinate vector of a pixel in the graphic buffer. More precisely, the vector +.RI "(x y)" +of the output pixel is extended to 3 values +.RI "(x y w)," +with 1 as the w coordinate and multiplied against the matrix. The final device +coordinates of the pixel are then calculated with the so-called homogenic +division by the transformed w coordinate. In other words, the device +coordinates +.RI "(x' y')" +of the transformed pixel are: +.RS +x' = (ax + by + c) / w' and +.br +y' = (dx + ey + f) / w' , +.br +with w' = (gx + hy + i) . +.RE +Typically, \fIa\fP and +\fIe\fP corresponds to the scaling on the X and Y axes, \fIc\fP and \fIf\fP +corresponds to the translation on those axes, and \fIg\fP, \fIh\fP, and \fIi\fP +are respectively 0, 0 and 1. The matrix can also be used to express more +complex transformations such as keystone correction, or rotation. For a +rotation of an angle T, this formula can be used: +.RS +cos T -sin T 0 +.br +sin T cos T 0 +.br + 0 0 1 +.RE +As a special argument, instead of +passing a matrix, one can pass the string \fInone\fP, in which case the default +values are used (a unit matrix without filter). +.RE +.IP "\-\-filter \fIfiltermode\fP" +Chooses the scaling filter method to be applied when the screen is scaled or +transformed. +Can be either 'bilinear' or 'nearest'. +.IP "\-\-scale \fIx\fPx\fIy\fP" +Changes the dimensions of the output picture. Values superior to 1 will lead to +a compressed screen (screen dimension bigger than the dimension of the output +mode), and values below 1 leads to a zoom in on the output. This option is +actually a shortcut version of the \fI\-\-transform\fP option. +.IP "\-\-scale-from \fIw\fPx\fIh\fP" +Specifies the size in pixels of the area of the framebuffer to be displayed on +this output. +This option is actually a shortcut version of the \fI\-\-transform\fP option. +.IP \-\-primary +Set the output as primary. +It will be sorted first in Xinerama and RANDR geometry requests. +.PP +.SH "RandR version 1.2 options" +These options are only available for X server supporting RandR version 1.2 +or newer. +.IP "\-\-prop, \-\-properties" +This option causes xrandr to display the contents of properties for each +output. \-\-verbose also enables \-\-prop. +.IP "\-\-fb \fIwidth\fPx\fIheight\fP" +Reconfigures the screen to the specified size. All configured monitors must +fit within this size. When this option is not provided, xrandr computes the +smallest screen size that will hold the set of configured outputs; this +option provides a way to override that behaviour. +.IP "\-\-fbmm \fIwidth\fPx\fIheight\fP" +Sets the reported values for the physical size of the screen. Normally, +xrandr resets the reported physical size values to keep the DPI constant. +This overrides that computation. +.IP "\-\-dpi \fIdpi\fP" +This also sets the reported physical size values of the screen, it uses the +specified DPI value to compute an appropriate physical size using whatever +pixel size will be set. +.IP "\-\-newmode \fIname\fP \fImode\fP" +New modelines can be added to the server and then associated with outputs. +This option does the former. The \fImode\fP is specified using the ModeLine +syntax for xorg.conf: clock hdisp hsyncstart hsyncend htotal vdisp vsyncstart +vsyncend vtotal \fIflags\fP. \fIflags\fP can be zero or more of +HSync, +-HSync, +VSync, -VSync, Interlace, DoubleScan, CSync, +CSync, -CSync. Several +tools permit to compute the usual modeline from a height, width, and refresh +rate, for instance you can use \fBcvt\fR. +.IP "\-\-rmmode \fIname\fP" +This removes a mode from the server if it is otherwise unused. +.IP "\-\-addmode \fIoutput\fP \fIname\fP" +Add a mode to the set of valid modes for an output. +.IP "\-\-delmode \fIoutput\fP \fIname\fP" +Remove a mode from the set of valid modes for an output. +.PP +.B "Per-output options" +.IP "\-\-output \fIoutput\fP" +Selects an output to reconfigure. Use either the name of the output or the +XID. +.IP \-\-auto +For connected but disabled outputs, this will enable them using their +first preferred mode (or, something close to 96dpi if they have no preferred +mode). For disconnected but enabled outputs, this will disable them. +.IP "\-\-mode \fImode\fP" +This selects a mode. Use either the name or the XID for \fImode\fP +.IP "\-\-preferred" +This selects the same mode as \-\-auto, but it doesn't automatically enable or +disable the output. +.IP "\-\-pos \fIx\fPx\fIy\fP" +Position the output within the screen using pixel coordinates. In case reflection +or rotation is applied, the translation is applied after the effects. +.IP "\-\-rate \fIrate\fP" +This marks a preference for refresh rates close to the specified value, when +multiple modes have the same name, this will select the one with the nearest +refresh rate. +.IP "\-\-reflect \fIreflection\fP" +Reflection can be one of 'normal' 'x', 'y' or 'xy'. This causes the output +contents to be reflected across the specified axes. +.IP "\-\-rotate \fIrotation\fP" +Rotation can be one of 'normal', 'left', 'right' or 'inverted'. This causes +the output contents to be rotated in the specified direction. 'right' specifies +a clockwise rotation of the picture and 'left' specifies a counter-clockwise +rotation. +.IP "\-\-left\-of, \-\-right\-of, \-\-above, \-\-below, \-\-same-as \fIanother-output\fP" +Use one of these options to position the output relative to the position of +another output. This allows convenient tiling of outputs within the screen. +The position is always computed relative to the new position of the other +output, so it is not valid to say \-\-output a \-\-left\-of b \-\-output +b \-\-left\-of a. +.IP "\-\-set \fIproperty\fP \fIvalue\fP" +Sets an output property. Integer properties may be specified as a valid +(see \-\-prop) comma-separated list of decimal or hexadecimal (with a leading 0x) values. +Atom properties may be set to any of the valid atoms (see \-\-prop). +String properties may be set to any value. +.IP "\-\-off" +Disables the output. +.IP "\-\-crtc \fIcrtc\fP" +Uses the specified crtc (either as an index in the list of CRTCs or XID). +In normal usage, this option is not required as xrandr tries to make +sensible choices about which crtc to use with each output. When that fails +for some reason, this option can override the normal selection. +.IP "\-\-gamma \fIred\fP:\fIgreen\fP:\fIblue\fP" +Set the specified floating point values as gamma correction on the crtc +currently attached to this output. Note that you cannot get two different values +for cloned outputs (i.e.: which share the same crtc) and that switching an output to another crtc doesn't change +the crtc gamma corrections at all. +.IP "\-\-brightness \fIbrightness\fP" +Multiply the gamma values on the crtc currently attached to the output to +specified floating value. Useful for overly bright or overly dim outputs. +However, this is a software only modification, if your hardware has support to +actually change the brightness, you will probably prefer to use \fBxbacklight\fR. +.PP +.SH "RandR version 1.1 options" +These options are available for X servers supporting RandR version 1.1 or +older. They are still valid for newer X servers, but they don't interact +sensibly with version 1.2 options on the same command line. +.IP "\-s, \-\-size \fIsize-index\fP or \-\-size \fIwidth\fPx\fIheight\fP" +This sets the screen size, either matching by size or using the index into +the list of available sizes. +.IP "\-r, \-\-rate, \-\-refresh \fIrate\fP" +This sets the refresh rate closest to the specified value. +.IP "\-o, \-\-orientation \fIrotation\fP" +This specifies the orientation of the screen, +and can be one of normal, inverted, left or right. +.IP \-x +Reflect across the X axis. +.IP \-y +Reflect across the Y axis. +.SH EXAMPLES +Sets an output called LVDS to its preferred mode, and on its right put an +output called VGA to preferred mode of a screen which has been physically rotated clockwise: +.RS +xrandr --output LVDS --auto --rotate normal --pos 0x0 --output VGA --auto --rotate left --right-of LVDS +.RE +.PP +Forces to use a 1024x768 mode on an output called VGA: +.RS +xrandr --newmode "1024x768" 63.50 1024 1072 1176 1328 768 771 775 798 -hsync +vsync +.br +xrandr --addmode VGA 1024x768 +.br +xrandr --output VGA --mode 1024x768 +.RE +.PP +Enables panning on a 1600x768 desktop while displaying 1024x768 mode on an output called VGA: +.RS +xrandr --fb 1600x768 --output VGA --mode 1024x768 --panning 1600x0 +.RE +.PP +Have one small 1280x800 LVDS screen showing a small version of a huge 3200x2000 desktop, and have a +big VGA screen display the surrounding of the mouse at normal size. +.RS +xrandr --fb 3200x2000 --output LVDS --scale 2.5x2.5 --output VGA --pos 0x0 --panning 3200x2000+0+0/3200x2000+0+0/64/64/64/64 +.RE +.PP +Displays the VGA output in trapezoid shape so that it is keystone corrected +when the projector is slightly above the screen: +.RS +xrandr --fb 1024x768 --output VGA --transform 1.24,0.16,-124,0,1.24,0,0,0.000316,1 +.RE +.SH "SEE ALSO" +Xrandr(3), cvt(1), xkeystone(1), xbacklight(1) +.SH AUTHORS +Keith Packard, +Open Source Technology Center, Intel Corporation. +and +Jim Gettys, +Cambridge Research Laboratory, HP Labs, HP. |
