[QUESTION] How to not extend to second monitor?

[dancaer69]

Hello, I just tried cage to run an application standalone and it extends the screen to the second monitor. I only want to use the primary monitor. I found some issues about the -m option, but I don't know which parameters it takes. I found about first and last, but when I use first it doesn't change anything. When I use last the application run only on the 2nd monitor. Is there any other option, so to run only on the first monitor?

Hi @dancaer69,
-m option for Cage does not manage first or an output name argument. However, you may use tool based on the wlr-output-management protocol just like wlr-randr (or kanshi) to disable the second output. Some hints are available in issue #257.

This is really unreliable. My monitor for example turn itself on after being turned off by wlr-randr and comes back with the wrong resolution
